throbbing head aching,
hips to toetips one full pain.
long dull-drumming day,
every moment piling like
untidy stacks-- now falling.

The first frost-flowers'
icy tendrils are sneaking
under my red hood;
my fogged breath a fertile ground,
my icy mind even more.

Spit-flecked face, wild eyes,
and words old as Cassandra's
in their unclear doom.
We laughed soft (how could we not?),
rather than fear our fortunes.

How many summers
ago was it, my dearest,
when that parking lot
was full, the air hummed, the wind
blew back your hair the first time?

Morning, op'ning door:
Crisp air, bright sun, and a leaf
which waited, I know,
for the best, most dramatic
fluttery moment to fall.
