best friend poem

since, if you stood by my side today
they threw a stone, you threw a stone
i have heard them in the night
gone before us
doubtless i remember still
they in the darkness gather and ask
in new york harbor
i have heard that a certain princess
while i stood listening, discreetly dumb
she limps with halting painful pace
mid pleasures and palaces though we may roam
we lay
for then without
