graduation poem

why are the things that have no death
gloom
that strange companion came on shuffling feet
over the river they beckon to me
a sky that has never known sun, moon or stars
a very remarkable history this is
see the tentative
i saw the archangels in my apple-tree last night
long ago, in the young moonlight
let us pity those who are better off than we are
i see all human wits
fat black bucks in a wine-barrel room
in and of itself
