Amounting to gratitude for basic standards of existence

Not stepping on toes or overviewing the panorama, taking foul with fair in bemusement 

An obstacle dissolved 

With my violin in a dry warm velvet case next to me on the tolerable bus 

Downtown ahead in a wash exponentially gray, like Avalons seedy cloak, lumbering slowly over the ruts 

Rain carves into every wrinkle the path reminds in stacatto transit sway
