As we stare beyond the windows there
ย
Over all the gardens
ย
That have never been
ย
And will never grow again
ย
How long?
ย
How long?
ย
The shining winking stars
ย
The clouds too high, so high
Pointing to some final star
The dull face of the sky
The sound of the calling, of the distant village bell
ย
And all that
ย
The sun is not enough for us any longer
And her smile
Though she wears her hat
ย
And her cheery rays do not blanket with their glorious glare
The burning body
ย
With distorted nimbus
I see too well
Just beyond my neighbour's house
ย
It does not blank out
ย
The last sigh of the soul
Whilst the night rejoices profound and still
At the edge of your street
Both shadow and destroyer
But not alas, the comforter
ย
