Raisin Bran flies overhead

in a leisure suit
from the thrift, shoulders and shoes
too large, dry man begs

too large, dry man begs
but that's the ring I want, she shrills

holding on to his moment
going going gone

going going gone
dim beer signs, quiet bleachers
this late summer loss

This late summer gone

ruffled by our store's prices
my own grandmother

the tips of leafless branches
tremble in the wind

tremble in the wind
strange urge calls to the unknown
young jay tests his wings
