roads slip
into driveways
canyons of silence
where cars
run out of places to go.
Saturday morning in Ohio
the burbs bristle
with a sheen of unseen.
Hours wander off
become confused
are led back
by a marshalling sky.
Occasionally there are whispers
from the bottom of the bag
where wild flowers skirmish.
Success here
is anything
we can quietly
hold on to.
