Autumn Ivy

autumn ivy
tickled by sleepy draughts
gathering in whorls
ingeniously
on stone
until first light

shape of man or lizard
climbing through
a window
open
partially
inviting
any deciduous invader

cool ledge
body gone
last dim slink
then rapidly
unnervingly
unseen

no one suspected
it was a bedroom
