the sun sets as
the dishes from breakfast
harden in the sink

coffee, black, brewing
kids climb coughing into bed
with icicle feet

I found the source of the grease - the garage door opener has been disintegrating over the last few days.

There is rain to the south, and the sun is trying to break through the clouds and fog blanketing the valleys, just east of where the plains rise to meet the mountains.

night; kids tucked in tight
dirty dishes in the sink
crumbs on the counter
