Under this northern sky
Demons rise like wraiths.
Through elegant lace
born between mists of an April rain.
Tongues wagging,
spirits quick, hot,
they hiss and claw
through garden greenery.
Until the grass lies in damp rows;
trees spare, thin with leaves.
We awoke in the cool of a gray morning.
The sparrows they were not singing.
