I gave in to the sadness by
The long paths of the seas;
The temporal we struggle with’s
Gestational disease —-
For though we have dominion, we
Are rolled and reeled and ruled,
And when we think we understand —
That’s when we’re really fooled.
I gave in to the years, and all
My experiential ghosts;
The ardors, and the arbors, and
The armor-bearing hosts —-
Then closed my eyes to living sense,
So I could see again
The never-was I cling to, here among
What should have been.
For all of us have all of this
To do with as we please:
Our innocence, receding down
The long paths of
The seas
