The stillness of night covers the entire place.

The disturbance of sound slight.

..whooshing... of hangers.

...snap... of a case.

...t,t t,t... Heels on wood

Creeeak-ca-thud...screen door opens and slams)

Then silence is reclaimed as a slight figure clings to the
shadowed door frame.

...tap...
... tap .. heels down steps.

Then bare feet race to the car.

Zipppp (purse unzipped)

Clink-clink (keys removed)

Click-Pop ( door unlicked)

muted ...swish...(silk across leather)

Kreak-clunk...( door closes)
Ca- v-rommmmm... (old car starts)

Click...(seat belt snapped)

Blink-blink - blink... ( blinker on)

pop... (car backfires)
..ba-ping... headlights shine.

Zommmmm... (driver free)

I'll just do another review since your thing, became something, that makes my brain ring in the cleansing spring. The notes are invaluable. Almost made the poem soluble. But I've got to admit my mind had a fit because really it's discombobulable. As it was at first made my imagination burst and I think I loved it the worst. Then the explanation released the suspension of what I now realize is a lot of fun!

Thank you. Me too
I'm not convinced this is your car. Or it might be the getting to the car. Down the stairs. Keys. Doors. Then the car. That's what I'm thinking. What a novel idea. Hmmmm.

I watched a film last night that was amazing. It was like all of our poetry brought to life. Especially yours. A lot of the story was about writing a story and as it went the images and storylines were about things we've been writing these last few months. The Fountain. With Hugh Jackman and Ellen Burstyn. I kept thinking about your poetry the whole time. It was uncanny. If you guys watch movies much check it out.

This is like the ghost upstairs of my house. Weird sounds, I think it’s her old bones creaking with the floor boards, hard to tell the difference between the two. ;) I love this, very creative

I'm going to assume that car didn't do too well pulling out of the driveway. :) There are perils all over the road. The driveway shouldn't be one of them.
