what if you were right
and that was the peak of fall?
gasping for air i'm surprised
that it's crisp, now, like apples
that suddenly apple pie time came
and went, and i spent my time
pretending to be a leaf, and i didn't bake a single pie,
what if i really can't recover, and
california ceases to exist entirely
and so do you? even if it is possible
to erase something so massive,
winter is already here and i didn't even
invite it in. it would take me
much longer to erase california
than it will for the snow to erase me.
