City compositions

10:30 p.m. A warm November night after a number of warm November days. It’s been beautiful. The city is bright. I stand and look out across a bright Toronto skyline. CN Tower lined in red. A new tower somewhere downtown beams massive quantities of light through the cityscape. Four searchlights scan the sky and in-gather a whole choreography with light in movement. Alice leaps up onto the fence that lines the perimeter of the patio. Scuttles across to the neighbour’s deck. I participate in the sweep. Gathering up the folds of a feeling. Leaning into a dance. Imagining what could be. Sensing just a little more than what I can see from here. Moving with/in/through the sounds of city. Streetcars grinding along the rails, rounding Spadina’s curves just north of College. Alice is now sitting here chatting with me as I post. Flower essences: Buttercup, Sunflower, Larch, and Garlic in Brandy and Water.
