got here at last to the light between
sent sparkling dancing into my gathering
tears
leave it I say leave it let it grow
wind? not between these walls
as I look into the leaves
with the spirits of all who have preceded me
here
going gently and beautifully crazy
everyone else dances past on the street
with their souvenirs and Coke bottles
and striped mementos and I
got here at last to the light between
the leaves and found
a place to cry
