Scene change. Arrival without hope.
The sky had chosen
on its own accord to lower itself in all its West Coast winter smudginess
obscuring my view of the mountains.
A sense of liberation suggested by
the morning light was held by the immaculate anticipation of newly fallen
snow.
A black thin dog turning its head around in question to
it's master: "Am I going in the right direction?"
"Do you approve?" made
its hurried expression outside my window.
