anniversary poem

calm as that second summer
they in the darkness gather and ask
stuff of the moon
fat black bucks in a wine-barrel room
if i had known how narrow a prison is love
in the dark and peace of my final bed
there was never a sound beside the wood but one
i said, i have shut my heart
let us pity those who are better off than we are
it was many and many a year ago
the earth keeps some vibration going
in the cloud-gray mornings
while i stood listening, discreetly dumb
