City buildings at night, /
flowers of concrete and glass, /
blooming with light.

Fall flowers
Paths of fall color /
Descending from summer /
Color winter’s way.

“At home with a good book”
I wanna go home
where the buffalo roam
all about the loam,
and the troll and the gnome
eat crumpets from a comb
and the strumpets of Rome
read erotica from a tome
and wait for you at home
where the fun’s allowed to roam
wild as strumpets on a comb
and crumpets on the loam
and buffalo with a tome
thundering about the streets of Rome.
I wanna go home.
