short poem

some one complained to the master
i have heard them in the night
when sea-winds pierced our solitudes
gingham dog and the calico cat
the smell of the rose so false, the thorns so true
take my bracelets
i stood by the open casement
and still they walked on
the hypocritic days
the old west, the old time
