Resurgam
Life stood on the top stair a moment
Waved her last gray slander down the stair,
I will not forget her absent eyes
Her other smile like one rose
Falling, falling everywhere
As I waywardly hesitated
With upward fingers and turned lips out,
Dismissed, tossed to always a twilight
Amid stuttering houses, tilted faces
And I said, If roundabout
Into the stark portrait of a mood
I weave a bolder composition
Lines of forward conversation, pencilled brows,
Two of my streaks of vanished blood
For mouth and hair,
Why, then I said, Life like a found star
Burning here usually and there,
Will return and pose once more
Where she stopped once with stricken eyes
Bitterly, then closed an iron door.
Waved her last gray slander down the stair,
I will not forget her absent eyes
Her other smile like one rose
Falling, falling everywhere
As I waywardly hesitated
With upward fingers and turned lips out,
Dismissed, tossed to always a twilight
Amid stuttering houses, tilted faces
And I said, If roundabout
Into the stark portrait of a mood
I weave a bolder composition
Lines of forward conversation, pencilled brows,
Two of my streaks of vanished blood
For mouth and hair,
Why, then I said, Life like a found star
Burning here usually and there,
Will return and pose once more
Where she stopped once with stricken eyes
Bitterly, then closed an iron door.
