Rhapsody in Grey

High fog just starting
To burn off above treetops.
Birds twitter and hop.

Motor-noised Malcolm
Hunting down his ball quarry.
Sleepy girls in bed.

Garry reads feng shui.
I sense changes coming to
The house's bagua.

He closed the stoppers
In bathrooms to stop chi leaks.
I feel the difference.

I don't understand
Why it fascinates him so.
Doesn't seem his style.

After 15 years
His movements still amaze me.
Who is this masked man?
