unspoken baptism (2016)

Wind visits this late evening to sweep leaves
across another disorderly autumn

Time now to let those few dear to me know
I’m going, though words come hard and never
seem enough

Perhaps to sleep, perchance to dream -huh!-
a better answer, while steel rain washes city
slate under the ageing moon's unspoken
baptism

We are all precariat, for sure
