In my office tonight, getting ready to sit down and write… I stop.
Music. Unmistakeable.
Somewhere, someone is playing music.
The house is asleep. I’m the only one awake.
Yet there it is. Unmistakeable.
I go out and stand on the front porch, just in case it’s a neighbor.
Nothing.
Back inside, the house is quiet.
I stand in my office, head cocked… waiting.
