As We Age
As we age, each little grunt at a time,
The relic of faith kept crossing the Black
Atlantic, the vined bodies that come with this
Crossing, weigh as anchor, immutable
Suns, and their last shadows, setting behind
Us. And . . .

Each poet will write / their own hell. In mine, like yours, / I’ll be condemned to beauty. — Yusuf Saadi
