Resudue
some late falling leaves
are too dark to be visible
they crash through the night
between the creaking jaws
of a chill sky
train wrecks happen
when no one is watching
people fall out of planes
into empty fields
life collides with its own loneliness
is nullified
into countless zeros
you can fall
into a dead space unnoticed
and where you would expect
to find floor
a flotsam tumbles unseen
in the morning
you sweep up your remains
closing a door softly behind you
