no one


an alarm rings out 
that no one knows about  
it is time to breathe

the street is deserted 
sentry doors stand 
my feet find release

the road is a river 
tall towers trees 
this is a dream

i plan never to wake 
wide-eyed I wander 
dating a memory

your plants reach out  
over balcony rails 
we meet and greet

dog to dog
nose to nose or to tail
this is a free country

i never will knock
i like the sounds
that 'no one' makes

someday if you
do open a window
that breeze won't be me
