DISSUADED FOR DECIDUOUS REASONS

Decision 
after—difficult

decision! lays 

waste to a whole host
of amateur wool-
gathering  

poets 
this season!—hellbent

on shearing 
an assiduous little

of October's soft 
light off the old tops 

of its
mangy oak pillars

for the generous 
benefit of imagined
forests of grateful millions—until

for 
instance—heck, are we sticking 

with—persimmon 
then? or 

going—
for the vermilion?
