Estival breath perfumed the whimsical view
Perfect metamorphosed season ensued
Torrid wind whistled as fall foliage mind-glued
Exquisite maple leaves cascade in vivid red...

They marched past my lane warriors all
Smart green fatigues, mirthful soldiers tall,
Hats inclined, their buttons shining bright
Boots drumming into a warming light,

raking the dandruff of exotic dreams that swelled in nights hot
destined to be doomed in spectres of rejection...

whispering eternities into the crevices in the air,

shadows of dusk's murk
fondling each gegenschein's life
harking back flashbacks ...
