Leaf Grief

A pack of leaves at the end of a dead-end street. Whirling without warning, surrounding invisible things. Like a pack of wolves chasing a hobbled elk Suddenly they are perfectly still...feasting. If they had teeth, I think they would bite me. A pack of leaves at the end of a dead-end street... is a lot like grief.
