quietly the light comes to bed

the crow’s disgust at the river rampant with scum

worship the moon and her night breeze comforting us in our sleep

like a dream autumn waves glide like a dream

defiance cat shadow refuses to budge from the gates

the system is undone crumbling from within

the system is fragile the system is wanton

don’t forget to tax the trees perhaps a speed ticket for the autumn gales

autumn is nature’s way of saying: fuck you humans

trees paint their faces red shed leaves in protest
