Groyne

 

Ocean worn timbers

braced for October storms and

surging tides of sand

Flaneur

 

Aimless wandering

surprising discoveries

around each corner

Wasp nest

 

In loft apartments,

a gift from former tenants;

perfect hexagons

Fly

 

Stinking death and rot,

by association you

haven’t got a chance

Autumn years

 

Does Autumn have an

Autumn and if so what is

Autumn’s Autumn called?

Lovers

 

In the Autumn shade

a young couple share kisses;

in oblivion.

Legacy

 

In a hundred years

will we be thought of as the

thieves of their future?

Porky scratchings

 

A guilty pleasure

that shortens one’s life

serves to enrich it.

Heavenly

 

On days like this one

mortals are elevated

to the height of Gods.

Borrowed time

 

Summer’s last hurrah

new leaves unfurl, unprepared

for September’s chill.
