On the wall
The body is gone. /
Prison is more than a place. /
Hope hangs on the wall.

Seeds
Autumn seeds descend. /
Winter’s cold underworld. /
Spring’s ghost whispers hope.

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

Cravings
Halloween evening.
The dead amongst us this hour
crave “sweets” to devour.

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.
