golden horizon
whispers of fall linger above the trees
grass dries, dies
brittle yellow-brown
from a harsh sun angling
to get away
hide beneath a golden horizon
like responsibility
resting on your fence
my arms flat beneath the chin
as I consider all the reasons why
we serve on this planet like ants
until the day we too must die
my blue eyes brighter
than any horizon before
discolored
flame out
whispers of something else calling
i won't think about
the white blankets
I could crawl beneath
I never want shoveled out
but pile high to freeze my limbs
to never lift again
you can have your spring
i won't be a part of it

it's too early for fall, but I have to be prepared for an eternal nap.
