Finn sits very still.
His knees press the cushion.
The curtain edge taps his sleeve.
It sways.
Fine dust lines the sill.
A pale water ring stays on the wood.
An aunt stirs down the hall.
A spoon clinks once.
Two drops race down the glass.
Drops race.
Finn watches the short race.
Fog spreads across the pane.
The clear circle fades.
The view blurs.
Finn lowers his gaze to the sill.
A dust speck lands on his hand.
It tickles his knuckle.
A yellow pencil rolls slowly.
It bumps his finger.
Water pours into a cup.
Steam lifts by the doorway.
Soft rain taps on the pane.
A cat pads onto his sock.
