977.
in the darkened room
the curtains move and settle
the pink night light glows
2/22/22
978.
sitting on the cash
consolidating the gains
dying of boredom
3/4/22
979.
after that party
gossipy neighbors trashpick
leftover secrets
3/10/22

Claudia McGill Writes Poetry, Did You Know That? 
All three poems are great but I am especially taken with the final poem. I think that metaphor of trashpicking is perfect for that kind of behaviour.
Thank you. Yes. I envision also in these circumstances, that people resemble long-beaked birds poking into the ground or maybe pecking at a tree for nourishment…but that is for another poem!
979! Talking of boredom …
I love your take on the behavior of people, often strangers, as they poke around at the periphery of our lives….
Thank you. I just go along my way, keeping my eyes open, and observe the world, and you know, there is never a dull moment here on this planet Earth, that’s what I can tell you.
