Bats Beckon the Harvest Moon
Movements
scraping leaves
tiny girl
rustled
cool wind memories
amidst
red, orange, and gold
apples and pumpkins
window soft howlings
momentary heartache
links autumnal souls
Green, purple, yellow
Pumpkins whisper a farewell
Renewed is my love
Three upon the green
Resurrecting E A Poe
The murder takes flight
Pyres glow from hilltops
Three crows flutterswoop the woods
Omen Druids know
Western Octobers
Every day an afternoon
Carved masks reappear
Haunted Hike
Moonless night
On our haunted hike
Limbs creep
Murky trail
Silence melts
Fingernail leaves
A soft whisper
Hairs on end
Jack-o-lantern blinks
It’s that time again
Halloween Love
Oh, October
With your breezes
Quiet light
Yellows with green
You caress me
cool pumpkin skin
Bipolar disorders
Depressions not clean
Rapid cycles and teardrops
Clinging to me
Halloween love
Trick-or-treat
Bag full of kidneys
Preserving me
Charnel
the raven flies
from her black hole
looking back
on her dead soul
the nightmare awaits
until I am blind
dead ends and apparitions
are what I find
beneath my window
black cats fight
some thing grins
in the shadows of the night
