LEAVES

Leaves

The cardinals and goldfinches and tanagers are falling
Twirling against the moon-grey scarp of sky landing
On blue shimmering altars of water, mums, the coarse
Blackened stalks of helianthus staggering over the leaves
Everywhere leaves dusty sneakers hanging from the wire
Leaves intense frenzy of purpose gnawed shells scattered
Dancing banners loosed calico cats coming down
