Fists
Curled into dead fists /
brown leaves deny, then decay. /
Winter takes them in.

Threshold
Today speaks decay. /
Memory echoes the past. /
Threshold whispers, “Why?”

Waiting
Even in beauty /
Decay lives, carrying a /
Valise of tomorrows.

Lichen
Pathways, walkways, walls — /
Lichen covered here and there. /
Brick, stone, wood, and dirt — /
Decay is Time’s only care. /
Taking down the now — /
Leaving pieces that we share. /
Pathways, walkways, walls — /
Leading onward, lichen dare.

Fall Decline
Brickwork and pumpkin:
Shadow, light, crumble, decay.
Dappling toward decline.

Decay
Decay touches all /
Arrives with kind indifference /
Grips with gray delight.

Collapse, decay, end: /
dissolving into its death. /
Fungus finds a home.
