short friendship poem

death's nobility again
that strange companion came on shuffling feet
there are gains for all our losses
soft as the bed in the earth
the darkness steals the forms of all the queens
i saw the archangels in my apple-tree last night
a pen of steel
i see all human wits
the agony of having too much power
doubtless i remember still
while i stood listening, discreetly dumb
i despise my friends more than you
