Here is a poem I wrote today, because it was summer the other day and now it suddenly is not. I shouldn't explain poems. Nor should I use the word 'suddenly' in writing. NTS.
4th September
It is that singular day
When the silent heat
Is replaced with the slap
Of wet feet on pavement.
This singular day
Makes everything uncanny
I see faces like marble.
A change of season
I want to change my soul
To be just as fluid
As the functional drains.
To be as crisp and concise
Like the snap of the cold leaves
I am Autumn’s phoenix
And I remain optimistic.
