A cluster of 4 leaves
at the end of a branch
in October
New England
easier for the mind to process
than the bits of particles
on the strip of film
finding the right distance
speed, angle
to focus enough
hold still
capture planes of space
the mood of the day
crisper than the ones
lost in recent memory
