'Cloudy Vintage'
My petition was answered,
And all prayers were approved.
On the Sky,
for few Hours was indited my name.
Alphabets were ironed heavy
To sink white floe,
To clandestine gossamery mossy growth.
Frothy grey bubbles of wool
Ribboned my name's hillock in blue
Black feathers of cotton
Enveloped the celestial moon
And the novas once bright
With cobalt pearls, were girdled tight
Blacks on blacks
Saphhires on blues
Doubled to twos
Around my name
Multitudes of mist
cloaked by
I saw nothing
My own name i could never recognize
While i was drinking hemlock
From dark flask of cloud's butter milk
My farsightedness dropped
Drop by drop
The Single hour
In endless toil but passed
Thou blessed me Sun
Thou blessed me Moon
Thou blessed me beams
When Thou was offering me recompenses
Alas! the ethreal light was asleep on the job
