august
if august is poetic,
then november is prose.
april is a lyric
etched on the petal of a rose.
july is an exclamation
and the summer — a secret sonnet
march speaks words of silence
coupling june’s flying tercets
september’s writing slow-falling rhymes
that match october’s lonely lines
& january is an ellipse
beholding words that fall before it
