Sweet
scent of autumn's flowers
dying
with the shadows of
leaves, and geese honking as the wind shifts
its direction.
Neolithic
dead were frequently placed
in
rivers, and floated down to the sea.
Leaped from rock to
cantering rock,
water circling as I slipped, and fell
backwards toward the freezing sea.
While
Orpheus plucked on his guitar,
I drowned
in the illusion of being alive.
