Refraction (6th Revision)

The hollow sound of

my memory

persists,

Though even

stranded stars cannot

refract this light, now.

It was a blue and

tender

hymn,

and it washed like

wind over the sea-salted

cat-tails,

whistling in their marsh,

harbored closely to the Sea-

in a somber end

to my final summer.

I chose to remember the magic child

abandoned long ago.

Under red skies worlded in war,

wrap't in merciless tremor,

my eyes rose out and ov'r

alone, as I hunger'd for

a storm of peace.
