November

Watching November. Stories of leaves and lives, the paths of weather and wind. The naming of storms as they move across oceans. Characterized. Rummaging inside the stories, among their array, thoughts detained by tracking their descents, following the arc of their flaws. Outside, the leaves are in wet piles, soon to be gathered up in a blend of red and gold from clutter to compost. There is no catharsis here. Only fiction contains them. The blue jay parents who caused such a fuss protecting their young last spring are still around. Quiet now. One of them still tilts her head, listening.

Blue Season. An unfinished project of mine.

      Same to you Jack. Raining like it should be here in the Pacific Northwest.

      Thanks. When entering fall, I tend to think of October. November seems liminal to me.

        It seems that way a bit to me as well. A chilly liminal space.
