teen poem

the lightning flashed, and lifted
and so it goes
i see all human wits
in the cloud-gray mornings
i can not tell you now
it was a tall young oysterman
within my hand i hold
i stood by the open casement
a sky that has never known sun, moon or stars
my soul goes clad in gorgeous things
the air is like a butterfly
