Evil Wind Chimes

crooked fingered me in my 
ichabod crane slippers, 
peering out the front porch.
watching a pair of hollow wind 
chimes rattle. 

 the wintery touch of window panes
 offer little but the frail figures of the
 stars hanging like lanterns or
 distant resevours of salt, 
causing me to grow very silent.
 
 miner of that somber place, 
 solice to that artic light
 i wander.

 followed by unknown blind albatrosses
 under an aurora borealis. 
and the canvas of my eyes seems
 to reflect this solemn procession. 

 where once a moon hung in december 
the last of the october and november 
leaf like, pale like whispers across 
the shadowy face.

 tell me of what signs should be or
 that may come, this evil wind chimes.
