    Billy McBride

    1.

    The words became lost

    Like the kings of Love

    Longing for their Juliets.

    ither a knight or a dunce !

    Those were the masks of myself.

    "othing was real

    #or any traitor to the truth.

    $n the waves near #rance

    %r u&on its shore there were men !

    Lads' animals'

    Like Tom and his horse.

    To &ut me to bed in the night'

    ,nd afterwards for themselves sing to &lay

    (hile $ dream of the solid things of my day.

    To leave this arth that $ view'

    My s&irit became silent

    ,cross the radiant day

    That dissolved the hours away

    6wiftly over the earth.

    #orcefulness was vain'

    $ thought' myself now a glori7ed hero'

    ,s night s&aced out.

    (hen words were lowered'

    Joys grew-

    The bed was softer'

    ,nd every old delight too.

    *& ahead the lands would be loved again

    $n the rocking of the days

    $n their heights above the lands.

    The day wandered away again
