All is quiet
Before it happens
Before they come
In droves marching lines of ants
Workers and soldiers and lovers and loved
It is all quiet
Before the sun rises to wake them
To shed light upon thr right path to take
In droves and in waves
Do they descend upon the day
Upon the field of view
Dust devils that will dance in the breeze
Plaid plainclothes pedestrians off at some pleasant pace
All is quiet
Before they surmount the wall of silence
Clasped tight pursed lips
Fearful of contributing to the orchestra
Rustling through the full leaded branches
Creaking in adjustment
All is quiet
Not a bird will whistle nor chirp
Overhead is a plane
Is a plan
To also reach some destination
But even this is just wind
Crossing the country and continent
When i move I will join them
In chorus or solo
Overheard or heard at all
I am roaming
Thoughts line my skull like cloudtrails
Stir up my guts and my entrails
Marching ants skitter
This and thither
Cacophonous until my coffin is thus
Six feet deep
Then all is quiet
