poem for dad

melancholy days have come
to what shall a woman liken her beloved
as evening falls
out of the deep and the dark
muffled drum's sad roll has beat
those black eyes i once so praised
renew the vision of delight
she knows a cheap release
when i looked into your eyes
up and down he goes
be not false
with her hair flaying wildly
earth travails
