Crowvember

Blowing frost on a star and gravestone 
quickening our steps like Charlie Chaplin
turning maple leaf into rubies and gold
churning flocks into wind-splashed shoals
now we're hunched over like Quasimodo
the homeless sinking deeper into their hole
November struts about and barks like a crow.
