autumn scatters
red and orange [ leaves ]
across the sun-kissed fields
that set all the trees ablaze  -
with the crisp [ fall ] air,
the leaves detach themselves from
the only safety they knew -
[ and ] they do [ so ] without
the hesitation humans have.
[ do ] we have to worry about
what waits at the end of a free fall -
much like a falling leaf,
[ i ]  don't worry about what is to come
read this three ways.
1. once through
2. excluding the words in brackets
3. read only the words in brackets
