retirement poem

there was never a sound beside the wood but one
the long resounding marble corridors
look back with longing eyes and know that i will follow
were it not for that singular smell
the stars fell from heaven
sun and wind and beat of sea
when i was broke in london
i shall see a star tonight
she burst fierce wine
god
he's gone
could we but know
