The Ember Months

Asked to assemble Things that resemble, Henry remembers The Racy Embers: Months of Baptismal Fires: For man waiting with criers Attitude – changing September And attitude – worsening October, Kennedy – snatching November And Robbers – multiplying December: Months for ruinous steps on Mamba And Urine’s loss of its amber. Urged to still assemble, Things that resemble, Henry remembers His family members: His wife whose every joke tires And their kids, incurable liars.
