roadside pumpkins

the pumpkins
are fat
this fall. hooligans
and baby boos.
cushaw greens
and golds.
lines of them
dot the field
in their bright
daytime glow.
and the gourds
surreal
with silly
long necks
and strange
colors
lean out of their
straw baskets
with an
askew smile.
cheap as gourds
should be
in any season.
