Only the wind blowing rustling the trees

11:22PM
only the wind blowing
tinkling the wind chimes
making the blinds clink.
traffic gone
people asleep
town carpet rolled up for the night
only the wind blowing
rustling the trees.
11:23 PM
single gunshot echo in the warm night
too close.
only the wind in reply.
no scream. no angry voices.
no siren.
only the wind blowing
rustling the trees.
