Really July 4th
Isolation Diary: Full moon. Constant explosions. In my neighborhood, all I had to do to see a fireworks show was walk out my front door. All around me, several blocks away in the 3 directions I could see, bursts of color and light. I live on a corner, at in intersection, and someone set off a professional grade firework in the intersection when I was standing out front. The noise was so loud! An enormous canopy of red sparks and trails burst over my house. And me. Beautiful but also physically disturbing, I wasn’t prepared for the noise. Now, apparently the people in this neighborhood have run out of fireworks but I still hear the constant rumbling of explosions in the distance. And…I’m wrong….someone just set off firecrackers in my street.

There were no dogs barking through the whole barrage of noise. People were keeping them in, maybe sedating them.Susan J.
