Chimeras (Track Presius)
“Satish was booked all day in court. I decided to take a low-key day and catch up on a few overdue reports. I got out of bed, pulled on a pair of sport shorts, and went jogging. The sun was rising and the air brisk.
I love the chilliness of Southern California mornings. During the day, temperatures in the valley can rise to ninety degrees, and yet mornings are almost always crisp. The strips of lawn by the sidewalks smell of dew. Whiffs of slowly brazing wood logs creep out of the chimneys a...nd waft down the streets. Sycamores, turned yellow overnight, surprise the eye with wavering brightness. The sounds are hushed: a garage door opens, lets a small car whir out, and then closes again. A crow caws from the top of a telephone pole and then stops, as though baffled by its own voice. Announced by a gargling hiss, a sprinkler goes off. The lawn welcomes the moisture releasing a nippy fragrance of wet soil.
