Porch lights

Fireflies wink
Teasing the darkness
They're sun has retired
The crickets warm up
For their endless cantata
Moths hunt nothing but one another
Manicured wings of white gossamer
Zig zag thru the twilight.
Stoic porch lights gaze
At one another
Neighbors cocooned in their own business
Stubborn as dead larva
Entomology throws nightly soiree
As humans apathetically gaze
Into one another's eyes
On social media.
Take notes from the fireflies.
The crickets serenade potential
Flickers of connection.
