Scattered leaves
confuse the pattern
on rigid bricks

Furious strider…
Furious strider
flustered,
cursing into a box

Another crisp leaf…
Another crisp leaf
staggers down
cutting close air

Sitting still…
Sitting still
cold granite slab
breathing again
Fiery maple leaves…
Fiery maple leaves
smouldering atop
damp mossy roof

Crust of Pumpernickel
Crust of pumpernickel
Reminds me of Mom
Though the reason for this
Escapes my deserted mind
Was it the flood from teenage trips
Across the soon-sprawling suburbs
To a German delicatessen
With rare meats and names too long
For my young tongue?
However, noting
Tongue is available
By the pound or
Even an entire kilogram
