In the Autumn

Nobody asked but …

If Autumn comes, will things cool down?
not likely.

The political season is upon the land
helping many to lose their grips
everything is anchorless.

All lack conviction, but are convinced,
under the cover of rectitude.
the season’s change is
useless to stem the flow
madness, mania
no, maybe calmness will come when snow blankets us?
