lyric poem

i fill this cup
old wine to drink
eighty years have passed, and more
the little white prayers
high-born race
do not grieve that it is over
in the dark and peace of my final bed
i have come into the desert because my soul is athirst
high walls and huge
tell me less or tell me more
how like the stars are these white, nameless faces
