Autumn For This Masshole

Getting colder 
covering the windows in slippery plastic 
covering myself in scratchy wool 

The birds in the park 
are all but gone 
and those that stay 
have changed their tune 

Pumpkin spice in freaking everything 

The leaves change and fall 
and the smell of woods 
is of colorful death 

How long until Halloween?
