A red fox trotting

Across the field, looking good
In the morning sun.

Here, a young woman,
Alone, head bowed, by her bed,
Early that morning.

A dimly lit room.
Reading late into the night.
Outside, the wind howls.

It's long past midnight.
Courtyard, beneath a balcony.
They speak; we eavesdrop.

Sky dark as midnight...
Five minutes ago, bright sun...
And now, pouring rain.

Outside, in the field,
The grass is moving slowly
In the morning wind.

Waves of heat rising
From the road...Is what's ahead
Real? Or a mirage?
