nature poem

lived by the river-side
i stood
you are beautiful and faded
i love my life, but not too well
pharaoh, king of egypt's land
in your arms was still delight
night was black and drear
candles toppling sideways in tomato cans
above them all, looking down
though love repine, and reason chafe
high walls and huge
the little white prayers
