Today We’ll Be A Barren Tree

 

 

Today we’ll be a barren tree –

rejoice in the obliquity
of cold late autumn morning –

feel Existence in the dead

exemption of the fallen summer –
look ahead to winter’s warning –

let the hungry gremlins

in our hearts run deep into
internal dark and leave us

to blue outer icy light – in love

with prospects of the ever
incrementally enlarging night.
