LONESOME THINGS

LONESOME THINGS, MAYBE

        a house

unlighted

but for one window

old sheet music

unplayed

since 1942

one dog

unquiet

barking at the hidden moon

last sailing boats

unoccupied

moored in the harbor

autumn rain

unwelcome

blackening the road

wet, red leaves

unappreciated

            except in old love songs
