Porch

Summer evenings and lemonade
A time when the whole town knew each other and said “hello”
First came screens against the bugs
Then came glass against the chill
Then came walls against the winter
The street became so loud with cars and trucks
Passersby diminished
Inside there is air-conditioning and TV

All of their numbers have by now been called. And in staring back at them, we contemplate our own fate.
