The Wintry Month Of Boo

Night creepers, scattered and unsheltered 

On gelid, squiggled grounds litted by moonlight and painted

Voracious appetite  of the long told-tale of suckers

Esurient schemiels  relishing, twitching on leaves and trees of dream-catchers

Mimicking voices of beasts  in echoing bills

Bereaving the lost ark of blaring mills

Emblems etched on walls and covered stones

Roving on wheels and winds of collar bones
