No prompt. I was taken by the tourists taking photos outside the library
while our artist group met.

It is an intriguing moment, full of possibilities,
I think. What windows have you left open,
or realized were open,
and what are the feelings you have about them,
what could happen next?
How do you leave the window open in your tanka?)
