retirement poem

when i was a boy at college
musing, between the sunset and the dark
for truth, for love
the long resounding marble corridors
i despise my friends more than you
now for a brisk and cheerful fight
when freedom from her mountain height
lived by the river-side
i flung my soul to the air like a falcon flying
thou unrelenting past
mysterious night
the sky
