JUST BEFORE ELEVEN ON A LATE JULY EVENING

Having cleaned the cats' litterboxes,
putting the clumped sand in a bag,
we go on a short walk to take it to
the trash container, me and the old
dog Nefer, and not one other person
outside in the warm, darkening, blue
night air, all the streets empty,
people caged in brick and concrete,
before flickering screens great
and small, lonely beasts not
in their natural environment.
