birthday poem

i am weary of being bitter and weary of being wise
let us plant
as i lie roofed in, screened in
somewhere i read a strange, old, rusty tale
be not false
short and sweet, and we've come to the end of it
when, full of warm and eager love
we lay
it was a tall young oysterman
a blue-black nubian plucking oranges
to the passionate lover
