see see


Fall the silence, fall the blind
for those who cannot stand
the depth unkind.
To the one you lose,
restless, death spasm in open view,
to the thread cut short,
we see for you.

Roused unquiet, in the dry cell
he near by the step down
returns again youth, well.
What unconnected before,
boisterous and familiar now,
died inside no one time?
Will you with silence lie
to the other worldly,
so covered as her mouth is,
and from your mind always closed
live your familiar earth
and over the black sand stand still?

Or, as Prometheus rolls the world
to alien health and youth,
static power, evening to come,
midnight sun,
learn to lose the one who never left
but fell?
And when,
because noise steps the day to cause,
it was all one, age found?
Will so the pleasure lose,
giving up the lost.
And brother land,
all were uncounted for all.
We feel this too.

It was this:
Unruly penury, problematic urge
with one fault:
giving away the beast free.
And now safe here, unknown,
warned to look away,
they in their rewarded hate
give away the head.  
It was the bearer's fault, put down.
As one knew the maze
so the last recovered,
emptied house,
while prim poor cleared the floor,
weak, sober, starved, awkward,
and took the feast fresh home.

The alien land, twisted gods,
twisted eye, only dimly knows
what we in youth all agreed
today is emm see see.

Lucky we.
Roll the wheel.
