drenching the over-wearied square
to host nowhere
visible
hairs on his lapel
labeled exactly as named, create
a period of turmoil to follow the peace
of a pure night
he… wonders (at the grave site
biting his tongue a shambles)
dark visitor
from some northern sphere
as befits our wilderness
slender upstanding
stems the surrounding
waste enchanted
we will follow this with our minds
