still awake

somewhat tired
still awake
wondering through
the maze the garden
nightly illuminated
strategically placed
night lights lead
to a bench in every
corner and a porch
to overlook it all
still clawing at a new
book in the dark
scratch marks symbolize
the thoughts as rain drops
slowly start to wet
the back of the neck
and the breeze does nothing
cept blow the hot around…
