A Fool returns November 8, 2007

Out of breath the Fool reaches the mountain.  

There a continuous breeze ruffles the copious feathers

on the Fool’s head.

His skin falls like snow on the harsh ground.

It is one of the nether months

Camouflaged right and left

Nooks secure saints and candles.

The fire by which the Fool retires

Leaves a redder glow than the sunset

On his cheeks.

He wakes stiff with anger and distaste

his mouth foul with the obsolete swearing

he greets his pains and bitterness with.
