By Frogg Corpse
PROMPT — If only ...
In the last warmth of autumns hold
Gripping damp November cold
Protection from this fear
While stripped from comfort clothes.
Leering in the dark
Sweat, rinsing palms,
Moving through words once smooth
Lost along ambiguous thought
An arid sugared spice
Mulling on the mind
Humming a little tune
While staring into night
Sorrows shedding leaves
By the limbering of the pines
Near the douglas keeping watch
At the site where windows cry
Under pattered raining roof,
Sounding querent from broken breast
The heart once beat its truth
The night two lovers leapt.
