Autumn

We bend down
from darkness
to shimmering grids:
whispery cirrus
  spherical-trig con-trails
Goose Bumps II BRK (True Type)
  Sans Serif
loose weave sodium-lights
  dog's mercury, sweet brake, bluebell
diffraction grate crooning
  z-plane clipping
fluttering street lamps
  hawthorn, elder, holly, dog rose
a spider-web shiver
  a moth's desperate shudder
earth-crust cast as bell to mantle
reverberate     echo     boom
a goose tolls a mordant song.
