family poem

love has been sung a thousand ways
i have come into the desert because my soul is athirst
we who stood
stay no more
splendid and terrible your love
world that changes under my hand
desolate and lone
the single clenched fist lifted and ready
since i have felt the sense of death
it was a tall young oysterman
a mile behind
and so it goes
