The Dark Season

Fall leaves;
                    Fireworks of creeping death,

Bring a calm that a long hot summer had removed for a spell.

Dark rest is here,
The coolness of autumn returns,
reclaiming the body

                 Conscience
                       and
               Consciousness, 

wandering free in the dark shadows of the unconscious.

Retreating from the world long enough to heal

From the
               
                 Deep,
               Burning
                  Eye…………. of the Sun.
