Dank misty morn
swaddling shroud
giant gossamer cobwebs
desiccate into unobserved obscurity.
Dew drops
line up along the window ledge
each upturned meniscus
taut with expectation of dawning liquidity.
Daydreaming disrupted
by perimeter movements
Fall-yellow ticker tape
flows down the breeze.
Deserted suburbs
disturbed rustling
the battalion of the leaf apocalypse
scurries after me along the road
chasing me home.
