Pieces of Eight (2020)

Waiting

Leaves are inconvenient things.
They fill in the spaces between branches .
They wave insolent greetings in the wind,
As they block out the sun, and the neighbors
From my summertime view.
Hurry winter, when the trees are bare and
From my window I can see all the way
To the intersection where the cars crash.
