Steps
Success, my dad said, /
was often one foot ahead /
of the other one.

Scattered
Scattered on the street, /
reflected in the car door, /
curled oak leaves and light.

Death
Death is an entry, /
a metaphor unfolding, /
a flower empty.

Silence
Fall leaves on a bench,
a pile of my yesterdays
all in dead silence.

Fright
Writer up all night /
succumbs to his story’s fright — /
no end in sight.

Once
Once leaves flew above. /
Now, they gather here below, /
death waits on the wind.

Old parchment
Fall leaves touch sidewalk, /
plucked from a season’s fancy, /
curled as old parchment.
