Grimbeau

Daylight

turns up over-clouded,

dampened, colder.

Solid,

slow, thick smoke

entranced sundown fires

exude precious little

warmth after dark,

Just

steady slow

smoulder, self-razing.

Torn up

newspaper, flyers, and cardboard

will leave glowing,

but soon, instantly,

stop, dissemble

And fall in tattered,

flimsy, dark smuts.
