Machinery is making noise
Over past the houses
Loud bangs and squeaks
And honking of horns
An air conditioner is running
Cooling as it performs
Rustling of the leaves
Right beside me
Nocturnal insects I think
Moving all around
A vehicle passes by fast
Destination bound
I'm outside sitting down
On the front steps
It feels a bit chilly now
I think I am done
In just a short sleeve shirt
The cold isn't fun
