Poetry list
the fire of faith
from the wastelands
of latter days I remember
how I tried to write on
eternity and call heaven
to earth by surrender
imagination and graft
the mirror of recollection
is cruel for faithfulness
and futility walk hand in
hand through a sunshine
whose rays burn all away
there are no cinders of
significance or ashes of
achievement all spent into
a void a vacuum where all
is surrendered and whatever
can be new can never be
known
