'Cause Somethings Can Only Be Expressed With Bad Poetry

Alum Rock Park December 2006

I am not the swirling cold
rushing frightened, scraping leaves

I am not the worried tree
naked, anxious and despairing of warmth

Neither abandoned playground nor
friendless swing

Nor lonely bench nor
dormant cabin am I

I am the being, sentient
Lord of Nature

Time is indifferent to me
My light recedes and all my days are strangers

When winter falls, it falls on me
