#Sirens in the autumn mist, ocean steaming gray against the October morning.
Their eyes are like embers or seaglass, and they watch you like remnants of night.
They won't come to shore, so there's this camaraderie between you and forces that would eat you if they could.

The apples are red hearts in the trees, full of #sin or knowledge, depending on how they're eaten.
And the pomegranates, bejeweled inside, each seed a teardrop, a kiss, a secret, a coin key to the glittering geode kingdom beneath the earth.

In summer, the #islands are a Van Gogh landscape under the autumn moon.
September blushes the folliage, October nights light them with orange lanterns.
In the morning, the blazing trees peer over the ghosting blue mist, as if the warm and cool of life are lovers.
