Daylight Savings

Bottles in trash bags

Soapy glass

Under kitchen lights

Twist and rinse

Watch your hands move

You, the artist

Me, the witness

Driving at midnight

Home away 

From home

I’m causing ripples

With a shoulder touch

It echoes unfelt

Through the masses

Daylight savings

Passed unnoticed 

It sings praise

Of early morning dialogue

Sitting in the doorframe

Telling other 

People’s secrets
