halloween poetry

that strange companion came on shuffling feet
when i returned at sunset
she has a clear, wind-sheltered loveliness
royal feast was done
listen to the sounding sea
she limps with halting painful pace
the smell of the rose so false, the thorns so true
there is a city, builded by no hand
soft as the bed in the earth
often is it not so?
out of me unworthy and unknown
to clothe the fiery thought
