Madrigal Night

The clutter of dead leaves
Knocked up by the wind
Outside the van

Gives the illusion that
There is someone
Walking out there

Scratching at the window
Behind the curtain
Peering in

madrigal: a polyphonic vocal setting, usually unaccompanied, of various kinds of verse that was extremely popular from the early 16th century to the middle.
