jubilate agno

let us now praise the month of october for even the sound of the word is redolent of pumpkin pie fallen leaves and early frosts

let us praise the month of october for it possesses us as we play dead on all hallows eve

let us praise the month of october for it's lightness of bearing and hope in death

let us praise the month of october for it is living as it is the dead

let us praise the month of october as it is the station before winter

let us praise the month of october for hayrides scarecrows and the flitted wings of bats

let us praise the month of october for the pungent strength of burning rice fields

let us praise the month of october for the light turns smog into de kooning paintings

let us praise the month of october for the sweater in the morning and t-shirt in late afternoon

let us praise the month of october in all its wonder and glory for ever it stands and we can do nothing but praise it's life giving and death dealing beauty

hallelujah
