poem

i am old and blind
are you awake?
all within and all without me
let us express our baser passions
all day to watch the blue wave curl and break
one by one, like leaves from a tree
let a joy keep you
this is the arsenal
two rows of cabbages
it was a tall young oysterman
i saw you hunched and shivering on the stones
when sea-winds pierced our solitudes
there by the window in the old house
still her gray rocks tower above the sea
