For Margaret
time under prisms
dawn and pollen clouds afloat
presaging changes
you are the glimpsed light
in my smokey existence
frail but enduring
You sing of the old gods easily
In the days when you are young,
When love and trust seem not at odds;
But I know there are gods behind the gods,
Gods that are best unsung.
K. G. St Chentero
(XVI Mil.)
