Grasping pain delay your favour

                    in this my hour of desired abandon

​

                    An oboe coldly syllables

                    delight of timeless leaves,

                    not mine ,and forgets:

​

                    In me Evening is falling;

                    it is waterset

                    on my grassy hands

​

                    wings flit in a limp sky

                    trembling; the heart

                    migrates,

                    leaving me fallow,

                    and my days, rubble.
