life poem

she might have known it in the earlier spring
tell me less or tell me more
i saw with open eyes
i said, i have shut my heart
in an old chamber softly lit
were it not for that singular smell
a sky that has never known sun, moon or stars
did you ever see an alligator
sleep, gray brother of death
