Crickets

the coy instant of darkness when
the crickets stop chirping
seems so full of
something
you can't help but wonder if
violins can form holy symphonies of their own accord

this wonderment is betrayed
by remembering the violinist
whose virginity you stole and
quickly wishing for dawn like you hope she wasn't

things cease to obey the bounds of reason
as you expand outward from a moment of percussion

you wonder if she heard horns.
she probably didn't hear horns.
i hope she didn't hear violins.

that moment shouldn't ruin darkness for anyone.
