Will wreathe and whirl with

fierce breath;
But on the summit, wind and cloud are still:--
Only the sunlight, and death.

We Have Created the Night
We have created the night I hold your hand I watch
I sustain you with all my powers
I engrave in rock the star of your powers
Deep furrows where your body's goodness fruits
I recall your hidden voice your public voice
I smile still at the proud woman
You treat like a beggar
The madness you respect the simplicity you bathe in
And in my head which gently blends with yours with the night
I wonder at the
stranger
you become
A stranger resembling you resembling everything I love
One that is always new.
