foglust august/ember september/unsober october

here we have gone past the end of july

in an interval set long ago

the cæsars remembered two months and a sigh

and a fog with hot charcoal in tow

..

september tempts us to be cool

in attitude and fashion

with falling leaves and back to school

and ends of days to crash in

..

candy acquisition

and a moon on wax and wane

seasonal tradition

we’re allowed to be insane
