Shall we name you the autumn beautyand I'll be the May of in between.We can sit and watch the clock do its slow twirlsomehow I think it senses my blightdays hang obese upon its hands as well.I sewed every question to my sideand they waited patiently through late springfor your golden arrival.But the threads wore thin in the august auburn sunand unraveled somewhere in the beginningof a September shadow.We could always change my name tothe May of nowhereyou could be the unreachable kalideiscopeand we can watch the light of another decaying season fade away Written October 13th, 2001 © on Oct 13 2001 02:16 PM PST   18 • 0 • 1
