Suspended in whirl
With sublime tense nonchalance
Spider waits in web.
Grasping at the ground
Dead leaf wants to hold its place
(With gravity's help.)
He wants to be seen
In his vest of bright orange:
Meter man checking.
Chrysanthemums go
Slowly losing their vibrance--
Fall into winter.
Little boy says "hi"
And sees there is a response.
The "hi" continues.
Beyond the link fence
A golden burst of color,
Not contained by steel.
