christmas poem

thou unrelenting past
just as my fingers on these keys
long ago, in the young moonlight
they ask me where i've been
the darkness
often i think of the beautiful town
very well, you liberals
often is it not so?
when night drifts along the streets of the city
to some the fat gods
if i had known how narrow a prison is love
wrap the earth in cloudy weather
how like the stars are these white, nameless faces
