     "Fall and Autumn"

he likes brutal jabbers
rough thunder
the heaviness of the dead rat

did avalanche rain
tap tapping of keys
in the still night house
the visible motion of clouds

spontaneous broken symmetry
droplets on the shiny rear fender
morose silverback, grim whig,
rogue umbrella flying,
not flag; raisin against time,
rogue umbrella flying.

    but at my back I always hear
    Time's wingèd chariot hurrying near


making sort through tip-toe
who, among the demonic
echelons? lugubrious
as a kingdom
membranous wings

membranous wings


Texas State Railroad.
