death poem

lo! 'tis a gala night
skies they were ashen and sober
i have known the silence of the stars and of the sea
day is done
as i lie roofed in, screened in
gone before us
pushing out, struggling vainly
she limps with halting painful pace
that strange companion came on shuffling feet
stand here by my side
in and of itself
master of human destinies am i
we who stood
wheel me down by the meadow
