Shock and Sibilance

The chill sashays in, unhissing

'Fore we unknow what we're unmissing

Carpets unroll in unsilent susurrus

As the homenote unsounds discordant unround us

.

Iced cement fills the cracks

Solidifying where unmortar lacks

Expanding with clicks and pops and sounds

Settling my home, unnoisy, down

.

The world goes underground in wintry respite

With the cadence of all marching unaway from it

And brittly leaves leave underfoot,

The sounds of footsteps, unforward put

.

The crackling charges of ions made

When dry fabrics unchafe the static inlaid

Make the clothed uncrinkle in harmony

With the crinkly leaves' footsteps' unmade destiny
