Rengay Through the Seasons by Masago & Friends

 

 

The Old Furnace Rengay #19, Mid-Winter by Vaughn Seward (CA) Frigid gusts— the wind-chimes sound, then not... Silence late at night— the old furnace kicks in. A favorite soap— at crucial scenes, no sound with pixellating. Car trouble... "Please repeat, my cell keeps cutting out." The baby whimpers again— its mother comes running. Red light— a speeding new car slides through. Click here for Notes   Dipping a Bit More Rengay #20, Mid-Winter by Vaughn Seward (CA) Snowflakes on a branch... it dips a bit more. Family dinner— garlic salt on my stick of celery. Athletic club— another gulp before pressing thirty. Siphoned gas— on the way back the can grows heavier. Sudden blizzard... we taxi back down the runway. Bowheads enter an arctic bay... plumes spray from blowholes.

A tangled cassette tape— an end flaps in the chill. Revolving door— cold and warm air briefly touch. Frost patterns form on the window pane— finger print. A single glove— fingers point toward the exit. Clock tower— big and little hands frozen at nine-twelve.

The tooth can be saved... but a root canal is needed. Mom succumbs to her kids' blandishments— stray kitten. Homeless vagrant— a long sermon comes with the bowl of soup. The lecture's over at las — but the prof calls a pop-quiz. Fifty percent off— the sales clerk informs us that the coupon's expired. Click here for Notes
