Footprints scoring virgin snow—
loosey-goosey slush really,
water's seeping into their mold,
desolving echoes, heel and toe.
What a mystery they present
in film noire-fog along
the river's bank; its nightlong song,
its bruised diphthong will be subdued
in the next day's rush to trash
a season. Put this under your tree
to mark the third day of Christmas.
It's non-fattening.
