Wolves

Dry, bluish-pale snow
lamenting
under the soles of my shoes
echoing the night
from the moonwhite tennis court

A car
curiously silent
crossing the railroad
Its exhaust fumes
a greyhound running behind

All along the dark horizon
the northern light's flowing gown
sweeping soundlessly over the trees

From behind their fences
the wolves are howling
desolately
