sounded like a mouse bounding
down the hall from one end of the house
to the other--then, to know the origin
of the earthquake was in the next state,
yes, that gave me pause.
Halfway between the accident and the ER,
at the wasp waist of the island,
the rain suddenly stops
so we can clearly see on either side
the Cascades, the Olympics
carving their jagged routes
through the soft Sunday sky.
