skeletons



this morning's walk was brisk
love this weather,
leaves are really turning here now,
falling on my head as i walked.
i saw an odd thing..
this little neighborhood,
small brownstones, manicured yards,
one tree had two skeletons in it..
they were hanging in tangled horror positions,
they didn't look like fake Halloween skeletons,
they looked real..
a few yards away stood a tall dark Douglas Fir..
out of place among the pines and oaks..
ominous,
in the corner of the quaint little house,
a bundle of dead corn stalks..
crazy deal..
