Artifical Light

Let the mind            dictate to the moon and not vice versa               as now when the royal wave rolls                 over the sands of.........                 cotton candy clouds                                   "Stevens' influence traceable back                   to the hiatus" and "T.S. Eliot was the George Herbert of his era".........                         wandering in the catacombs beneath                The World Trade Center eating fudge-ripple ice cream.                 Waiting for the spring to return and blossom anew........                         daffodils, pomegranates and skunk cabbage               a hope now lost to the truculent turning of time,                           another stop-gap argument left behind                              o so                                                                   long, long ago:                                        repeat the refrain--- "To myself,               to be read                       at a much                                    later date. "
