family poem

do not grieve that it is over
she knows a cheap release
i am old and blind
as i lie roofed in, screened in
risen from the dead
lady, your heart has turned to dust
for truth, for love
since i have felt the sense of death
wrap the earth in cloudy weather
there is no escape by the river
i cannot always feel his greatness
behold me, in my chiffon, gauze and tinsel
beneath my window in a city street
i loved a woman
