Tonight it preoccupies us - from "Northwest Passage," pilot episode

Shaking in the big picture
I wish I could tell you that
you're fortunate enough
not to hear the wind
through the pines.
An owl your connection,
hunt a drugged glazed,
nearly deaf to the night.
To claim the same fate,
attended by Fear,
preoccupies the seemingly insignificant.
Your attention meticulously snaps,
the sound of caution.
