"October" by Michael Gustavson
October
October rolls in the grass
spilling apples
from its lips
Hands riding in automobiles
pull at the sky
A lawyer wakes up
watches a woman walking
across her back lawn
Someone drifts to a kitchen faucet
bumps against spoons
A hidden record’s music
peels off the walls
The wind carries a thistle
as brown shoes run through a field
searching for October
playing in the dark grass
