Premium Member pigeons in the evening
That is not known cannot be known but pigeons may appear and may seem in the evening as dancing and not separate from that which is not known~ And, in the isolation of the sky, At evening, casual flocks of pigeons make Ambiguous undulations as they sink, Downward to darkness, on extended wings. ~Wallace Stevens, Sunday Morning...
