Today, I walked
Along a river girded by concrete
As fall's cold hand caressed the sage nearby

Today, I walked
Among hundreds of shades of sepia, brown, vermillion
As I heard my footfalls distinctly, with no green, dewy foliage
To soften my heavy steps

Today, I walked
Among the surrendering of Nature
To fall's cold hand, which caressed the sage nearby

What parts of me are dry
What parts of me are brown, with no verve
What can soften my heavy footfalls

Today, I walked
