Nocturne (November)

As we speak, these words go unsaid, unread.
Words considered good remain in darkness.
All words folded way stay out of sight.
Out of sight, out of mind in the closed night.
Like a suburb whose name is forgotten.
A suburb out there in another city.
Like a star named after a dead writer.
A writer who knew all the moods of night.
These words and words like them exist unseen.
Words invented for the personal voice.
Like syllables might explain creation.
Like chronos frames the frame of November.
These words, made in hope to share the darkness,
Night envelopes.
