Recycling the Romantic (2022)
Sepia
everything beginning again to be
covered in the slightest of dusts
being blasted by the ragged
restless winds which rattle the back
door sending dried-out winter leaves
and insects flying past
the weeks-old smoke hazing the horizon
turning the light through
closed windows
and the view outside already
into memories of the days
we were sleepier and the time before
the real fires came
