Blue/Spiked&Spiny. HAA and CB-B.

the windows need cleaning —

let's polish off the year —

gather up all the leaves

—one x one —

we'll wash them burnish them

salute the dwindled sun.

we'll sing a parting song —

we'll take a boat across the spiked

& spiny sea —

before the true frost

before —

the whole-world turns cold.

CB-B, Icelandic friend and coastal wind
