Nature Is Pushed Back
Nature is pushed back
Further and further, until
Childhood disappears.
At roads' terraced end
With his stick of age one points
Innocence' lost years.
Yet its strident will
Of a wind's force, ghostily
Strikes at the hearts, nights.
Fills up an image
In the mind, in a rainstorm
Of tears, tantrums, fights.
