Idiosyncrasies
Repressionist Poem #3
Come - come the fall
Like a dream to carry us
Into the darkest sleep
Come - come the fall
Let us not kid ourselves
When the scarab comes to call
Come - come the fall
With the cold steel skies
And the nakedness of trees
Come - come the fall
Let the curtain be pulled,
Let the Wizard be exposed
Come - come the fall
Break this flower apart
And let us see what new will come
