retirement poem

i saw you hunched and shivering on the stones
i know what you're going to say
darkest, strangest mystery
i have had one fear in my life
through the broad earth's aching breast
are you awake?
and so it goes
i have seen the proudest stars
which i wish to remark
soft as the bed in the earth
the long resounding marble corridors
