funeral poem

that strange companion came on shuffling feet
the dawn was apple-green
this is the ship of pearl
gingham dog and the calico cat
in his guarded tent
i hold your heart
master of human destinies am i
we break the glass whose sacred wine
come down at dawn from windless hills
before the solemn bronze saint
the little pitiful, worn, laughing faces
from floor to ceiling
by the shore, by the sea
be not angry with me
