Wounded Wren

       "...and then I awoke
          and found me dead
        on the cold hillside".

…And then I awoke,
And darkness around,
And dead love-fire smoke,
And cold hill-side ground…

And wounded by nearness,
A wren hung its wings,
Collecting a weakness
Of winters to springs.

Joy’s heavy desire
Mixed up with a doubt –
I’m really tired
Among insane crowd.

One thing I do know:
Love would never hurt it –
Me, part of your soul,
Me, poor colored birdie…
