minute ripples
in the sidewalk’s puddles
from this week-long drizzle.

a cloud of
insects drift and shimmer–
another plane overhead.

freshly cut blades
strewn across the path–
squirrel-dug holes.

each morning
new darkness thickens–
headlights approach.

a bird departs
a shaking black bough
a silent street

i welcome this air
thick with the smell and chill of autumn–
before the sunrise.

A leak in the hull.

It’s dripping is heard louder

Than roars of the sea

Stormed shadows crawling

Across nearly frosted lawns,

The passage of time.

The Impending Fall

Sloppy drops sink in,

Autumn approaches.

disappointed
by the lack of ferocity–
waiting for the wind.

the sun sets
behind a veil of smog,
igniting the horizon.

like the morning mist
off these forty-five islands,
our worries dissolve.

silent white giants
revolve slowly
contemplating these plains.

rain water sits on
the sill of a window left
open during the storm.

on the turnpike
we drove into a wall of rain–
break lights erupting.
