THE LATE JULY EVENING IN THE SUBURB

By ten in the evening the suburb
is all silence, civilization
winded down, the heat
and the rain of the day gone,
retreated like the humans
behind their walls of comfort.
One other dog-walker in sight
as we take the old dog
for her short evening walk,
then play football
breaking that silence
that tucks the people here
early into the coming night.
