…soon will the winter be on us,
Snow-hushed
and heavy.

Become the sky
Become the sky
Take an axe to the prison wall
Escape
Walk out
like someone suddenly born into color.

Every year there is a brief startling moment…
And every year there is a brief, startling moment
When we pause in the middle of a long walk home and
Suddenly feel something invisible and weightless
Touching our shoulders, sweeping down from the air:
It is the autumn wind pressing against our bodies;
It is the changing light of fall falling on us.
~ Edward Hirsch (“Fall”)
