Sorrow is my corner store
where jack-o’-lantern balloons
get high on the last helium.
The endcap is gold today
with numbered bags
of Werther’s Original.
No one is Werther.
Last night a newscaster
mentioned an “elderly victim.”
Don’t call me that.
I’m old
and obdurate.
Did you enjoy the the artible “Old Woman’s Lament in Autumn” from Rae Armantrout on OZOFE.COM? Do you know anyone who could enjoy it as much as you do? If so, don't hesitate to share this post to them and your other beloved ones.
