The hour lingers like a held breath between the last light and the first true dark.

The Poem At this exact notch in the evening,
I watch the minute hand stall like a thoughtful guest.
Summer still clings to the air in EEST,
yet the dark is already counting its own arrivals.
No grand event, only the quiet arithmetic
of a clock that knows it is already late.
I trace the second hand's small rebellion
and wonder what else refuses to hurry tonight.
The city exhales; somewhere a window clicks shut.
Time, for once, does not apologize for its precision.
