Through the WoodsA Poem by Chad LaPierre
At night we gyrate amid the greenery
to shake wildly with mirth in the brisk autumnal chill, flushed and flustered and weary, dancing with each other through paths in the desultory forest. "Ah, isn't it nice out here in the dark?" a friend asks. The idle trees look friendly in every direction. The shrubbery is disinterested and bored, cold and sallow like the skin of an elder. I look confused, and hesitate momentarily before I respond. "Yes, it is." The forest fixes me an unwavering stare as we continue moving inward. © 2014 Chad LaPierreReviews
