short poem

the shadows of the ships
in halls of sleep you wandered by
babylon-where i go dreaming
a poet, having taken the bridle off his tongue
last night the full moon laid a cloth of white
sun stepped down from his golden throne
at dawn, he said
listen
and as we walked the grass was faintly stirred
come down at dawn from windless hills
backward, turn backward
