The Graceful Dead - 3WW CLI (Decay, Graceful, Riot)

oils on a backdrop screen
air but full of stem and seed

signal decay out on the lawn
too far to see - too far gone

stranded there yet swept away
dancing, twirling forget the day

someone screamed or laughed or cried
the graceful dead in riot rise

Autumn Leaves - 3WW CLI (decay, Graceful, Riot)

autumn leaves beyond the hill
graceful flight to decay and spill

a sensory riot into the night
anchored rapture in fight or flight

what once was strong has fallen down
the snow shall cover the frozen ground

and as the trickster owns the laugh
the time that's spent at quarter past

has sent the giant to sprawling knees
until spring arrives and thaws the leaves
