Death at Dusk
Death at Dusk
For Muhammed Ali
Broken... Silence you dwell
In tomb solitude womb
As
Silent sky wept
For cheeks to betroth
Grief!
Whirled the globe
In pain beneath her heart
Your naked soul
Roared up hill
Uprooted the fatuous-being
Flexing-vain turned your dexterity
Ring as realm
Dwell
In Eden
Where death be not
