Autumn Menagerie 18: Solitude

Paris, Courtyard of The Museum of Arms, by A. D. .

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Solitary walker,

Astride sunshine

Gently settling over

cobble-stone.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The gutters

Form a Tau

You are too distant

To note.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Aloof and alone,

You brave ancient

Cannon.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Foreboding shade

Of the entrance

Fails to induce

A turn.
