Indulge me in the picture of a formerly bright summer day, drawing slowly to its end. Golden rays, the Herald, reclaiming territory in the name of Encroaching Night.
But it's still warm and the air moist, yielding a breeze which refreshes without chilling. Your ears soon acclimate to the surroundings, and from the din of ten crickets and ten thousand cicadas emerges boy soprano squeals ornamenting resonant, kingly barks. Your eyes focus on a child and dog playing catch.
But this is a Very Large Park and the vista is so vast. Apropos of the inscrutable, your eyes drift leftward, until motion beneath the shade of a cedar tree confirms the lock of your gaze. Paramours rest against its trunk playing at love, the shadows of the three of you and the tree longing visibly for the horizon.
A dozen meters eastward and half as many skyward, a loose network of twenty-one mustachioed, aged men atop a hill huddle around three picnic tables, each bearing two backgammon boards. In protest of the waning light, these elder statesmen of the Ukraine suspend the flow of time through the language of chips and fingers and grunts.
Your focus narrows on yesteryear's last ribbons slipping their way through the grasping hands of the congregants.
