after
frost—the pumpkin white as a cracked
skull
86: October 31st 2020 | bottlecap
in
the jack-o-lantern's mouth and out—
leaves

so
little time left—the cricket's singing still
unhurried

edge
to edge—the barn roof and teetering
moon

November—the wind in the empty swing-
sets

slowly into its dying reflection—a lakeside

wakened
at midnight—a scarecrow where there was no
scarecrow
