Dusk
The light stays a little longer.
From a rooftop in Silver Lake, the last sunlight catches the houses and palms before the hillside goes quiet.
From the rooftop in Silver Lake, I can see the sun reach the houses before it leaves the sky. It catches the upper walls and the trunks of the palms, while the trees below are already dark. For a moment, the neighborhood looks lit from within.
Above the roofs, a long band of clouds holds the same warm color. I stay at the railing as the light thins out, watching the houses turn back into shapes against the hillside. From up here, evening does not arrive all at once.
