Bellevue

The aptly named place Bellevue

At the time of writing contains

Eleven beating hearts

Nine, discounting my own

And that of a canine

 

Three, gaze out to where clouds meet

Peaks in a conspiring huddle

One, seated, inhales her clouds

Burning down from peak to basecamp

One ignores a dog with clear attachment issues

 

Two stroll in tandem, occasionally comparing screens

Two have wandered off in a

Calculated effort to avoid the

nosy parker on the next bench
