Uneasy

 

Was it the unfelt

Earthquake off of

Tofino,

The full moon

Forming for

February seventh,

What was it

That made it feel

Like the eleventh

Hour,

Was the sun

Spitting again,

Maybe the fog

Rolling in

Turning a day

Into grey

As fast as

Pulling a blanket

Over your head,

Perhaps a Goddess

Unhappy somewhere,

Causing dogs to pace

Birds to be quiet

People to be uneasy,

Looking around,

Glancing back

Over chill

Shivering shoulders.
