Late Quartet
A LATE QUARTET
Sitting
Looking out
Nothing comes
Nothing goes
Twiggy windows
A weeping pine
Earth Moon
Mahler comes to mind
Sentimental lion
Spastic in sleep
A fractured three-quarter time
Dancing heavy feet
White hands
Stroking
Each vein
Blue-racing
Half-in
Half-out
A pot holder
Dangles in space
Little items
Like soldiers
Blend
Crush
Don Quixotic
Rushing at
Nowhere
So slowly
Time was
Was time
The two
Come together
Sitting
Looking out
Nothing comes
Nothing goes
