Groans of Earth
By David Eide
|
|
Love fixes the poet to
Earths swallowed groans;
yellow radiant discs fly from the horizon
to join the storms of Andromoche.
Stories, sad people, will need to be
told and recorded so that the
generations that follow will
marvel at the limitations of their
ancestors; they will say they
were laden down with the burden
of so much movement.
They will discuss the further
erosion of the continents,
laugh at the foreignness of some
of our phrases.
