ANONYMOUS GUY READING POE
An anonymous guy
reading Poe
under moonlight treasures
and windy evening air
the deep amber Autumn
perpetuates the desire
an evening soiree
inflamed with lingering eyes
fingers entwined
in singular grip
fists clenched
at the provisions

and the ghouls and goblins
never do stop shadowing
our realities
