good bye poem

when a deed is done for freedom
when the veil from the eyes is lifted
up to her chamber window
your body's motion is like music
sleep, gray brother of death
when, full of warm and eager love
it was a tall young oysterman
have you heard
they ask me where i've been
i am singing to you
be not angry with me
give me
before the solemn bronze saint
sing again the song you sung
