Happy October! I think this poem from my poetry chapbook was inspired by some of my favourite movies, like the opening scene in The Labyrinth where it was pouring with rain.

It’s Getting Colder

bell rings

from the clock tower

always reminds me of

October, and autumn

horror films and drizzle

coat done to my chin

and Thriller

–

i am late.

–

crunch goes the

leaves soon to

be autumn.
