Goshen, Kentucky

The leaves change The red and the orange Tracing their way up Until it saturates the leaf to its death   The leaves fall I walk on them like A perfect carpet laid out...

"It Will Be Good." (complicated semi-spiritual emotional story.)<br /> <br /> "Upon his bench the pieces lay<br /> As if an artwork on display<br /> Of gears and hands<br /> And wire-thin bands<br /> That glisten in dim candle play." -Janice T., Clockwork[love that poem, dont know why, im not steampunk]
