Return of The Eve

crowing in the night
blackbirds perched on the high wire
straining to listen
as ghostly wanderers roam
witches’ brew wafts sluggish air
woeful choirs caw caw
blackbirds perched on the high wire
straining to listen
black cats hone pounced positions
secrets sung from empty woods
moon flickers off and on
cosmos reveals its porch light
straining to listen
to witches guffawed cackles
standing on the edge of time
as souls recall Halloween
