short poem

they in the darkness gather and ask
i am a woman
have you not heard
i am the wind that wavers
let us pity those who are better off than we are
sleep, gray brother of death
who loves the rain
the poets tell
their beautiful hair
muffled drum's sad roll has beat
in new york harbor
a thousand silent years ago
the endless, foolish merriment of stars
