today, almost over October
by Anastasia SelbyIt's 80 degrees farenheit
and the leaves look,
on the trees, as if
they've been softly rubbed with
waxy fingers,
they shine in the sunlights
as the wind quivers them,
I ride by slowly
the sound of my bike
in harmony with the cars
as they pass me,
people locked in their
sad boxes. 10/30/2008 Posted on 10/30/2008
