AUTUMN IN THE REAR VIEW MIRROR

Driving through autumn’s red and yellow dream—
leaving as it comes— road leaves kick up and float 

in the rear view mirror like notes of a Mozart sonata, 
   before falling again like bits of paper, reminders

of projects I’ve started and never finished, friends 
   I’ve let slip away and the orange I couldn‘t imagine 

when I was green.  Passing through the smoke
   of burning leaves, I am wakened to the stranger 

I’ve become to myself since I walked away from a
   town between two rivers where I could hold earth 

and sky in my hand and every morning Meadowlarks 
   sang for me alone.  Now I ride my fugitive pony 

from quarry to cathedral, betrayed and benumbed 
   by the god who came down to give us glory of flesh 

and the gift of sin…then ascended behind steel gray 
   clouds, leaving me to choose everyday between 

hymen and hymnal, moon chalk and sun dust, scream 
   and sob—carrying, like the wasp, my death inside.
