funeral poem

i saw with open eyes
they in the darkness gather and ask
since, if you stood by my side today
star-dust and vaporous light
when sea-winds pierced our solitudes
up and down he goes
brother, i am fire
a sky that has never known sun, moon or stars
through the broad earth's aching breast
friend, whose smile has come to be
i went up and down the streets
