Unharvested Attention

Rabbit Trail #21 X Dispositions of a Return

Before a conversation or a black mirror makes me aware of a stream outside of me,

I wait

Like the wine rests

A roast that simmers in grandma’s oven

We anticipate

Before distilled observations of a awareness let fly into some algorithmic webs

Find the rhythm

I wait

Before the day shows up to demand its worth

I watch the world and we awake

one more day (un dia mas)

Aware there will still be places to go and people to see

The first wave has started with the birds

so I make an exchange
One small and hidden to my left

• 2 syllable

• rise/fall

• high to low pitch

call with no response and it flies away

I take a sip.

I could recognize to my right four more distinct calls in a distance
