poem for dad

the light withdrawn
just as my fingers on these keys
which i wish to remark
when i was broke in london
sleep, gray brother of death
fat black bucks in a wine-barrel room
along the banks
grieve not for the invisible
let a joy keep you
let us pity those who are better off than we are
softly weeping
splendid and terrible your love
