Along the Edge of Evening

The sun low at the horizon.

Heat still in it.

The ground moving fast.

Field after field

patterns shifting

breaking

returning

Mountains holding the line behind it.

Dark and steady.

Energy running through everything.

Across the sky

through the land

along the road

Lines cutting overhead.

Sharp.

Continuous.

The whole landscape in motion.

Sun

ground

mountains

movement

All of it.

A current running through it.

Carrying forward.
