At Dusk
by Natasha Trethewey
At first I think she is calling a child,
my neighbor, leaning through her doorway
at dusk, street lamps just starting to hum
the backdrop of evening. î˘en I hear
the high-pitched wheedling we send out
to animals who know only sound, not
the meanings of our wordsâhere hereâ
nor how they sometimes fall short.
In another yard, beyond my neighborâs
sight, the cat liîs her ears, turns first
toward the voice, then back
to the constellation of fireflies flickering
near her head. Itâs as if she canât decide
whether to leap over the low hedge,
the neat row of flowers, and bound
onto the porch, into the steady circle
of light, or stay where she is: luminous1
possibilityâall that would keep her
away from homeâflitting before her.
I listen as my neighborâs voice trails off.
Sheâs given up calling for now, leî me
to imagine her inside the house waiting,
perhaps in a chair in front of the TV,
or walking around, doing small tasks;
leî me to wonder that I too might liî
my voice, sure of someone out there,
send it over the lines stitching here
to there, certain the sounds I make
are enough to call someone home.
