FALL BACK


full moon
as the clocks
go back

silver
supernatural
wolds

little one
can you see
the face ?

of the mystery
that
unfolds

what
are you
afraid of ?

living
so far
from towns

the shop
that never
opens

shotguns
fired
by clowns

warmest
October
on record

will all
be swamped
by water ?

we cannot
fret
too much

only love
a son
or daughter

the moon
is beaming
still

lighting
the badgers'
trail

we wait
for snow
and ice

by the fire
that cannot
fail
