Out the Window

[Knot]

Hi Tiger,

Really like the opening line, evocative and engaging, but...

I don't understand why the majority of the poem is parenthetical.
Nor why it ends on a pun.
In addition to the points RiverNotch has made about wind chimes,
a 'gale' suggests a lot of noise, perhaps even sufficient to drown
out the chimes.

For me the first line sets up expectations that the poem doesn't meet.

Best, Knot.
