angry with wind
yellow orange leaves twist
and fly and grind
everything turns red rising
like wild mountain trout spurn
lovers rake the wilderness
suture their wounds
all our sins so strong
the bitter blue buckets used
to rhyme our circle
i know euphoria will own
our random race to the finish line
gritty does not figure into this wind
