mother poem

star-dust and vaporous light
gaily through the fields we danced
at midnight
i said, i have shut my heart
death's nobility again
the lightning flashed, and lifted
braided and woven
those on the top say they know you, earth-they are liars
three days i heard them grieve when i lay dead
my soul is a dark ploughed field
winged shadows sweeping by
how wild, how witch-like weird that life should be
i love my life, but not too well
