October Rudeness

October bade to tune me for its heartache song.
Thirty-one days pelleted stressed pummeled rain.
How rude the tenth one to taunt with feuds weeks long.
No frisky wind wishes gentled October’s strain.

Thirty-one days pelleted stressed pummeled rain.
October offered no hued tones to subdue wrong.
No frisky wind wishes gentled October’s strain.
Fall’s leading month numb-stunned my confronted strong.

October offered no hued tones to subdue wrong.
How rude the tenth one to taunt with feuds weeks long.
Fall’s leading month numb-stunned my confronted strong.
October bade to tune me for its heartache song.
