memorial poem

i am in love with high far-seeing places
had he and i but met
i saw you hunched and shivering on the stones
the smell of the rose so false, the thorns so true
since, if you stood by my side today
candles toppling sideways in tomato cans
i reside at table mountain
mid pleasures and palaces though we may roam
a life on the ocean wave
tell me not
shades of night were falling fast
softly weeping
let us pity those who are better off than we are
