I’m waiting for tonight and we’ll make a fire and sit outside enjoying the summer sounds
Me, yesterday
When do crickets go to sleep
In the nights, in August
we have the sounds of crickets
telling us the temperature they say
In the morning, while still dark it is silent
they, the crickets, have gone to sleep
I’ve tried to stay up and listen for them to sleep
going silent bit by bit
but I can’t
they are there when I sleep and gone when I awake
even early, at 3:00
when do they stop, and go to sleep
