Intelligent, gentle, favored, they know their place
Is not below, yet would not claim a higher.
A gigantic scheme claims loyalty from some,
Rising past Babel-tower to psychic power
And truth. A rope dangles not down but up
To reach heavens of insight. An autumn leaf
Cascades past it onto the head of its holder.
We need protection from the hollow, death-
Inflicting eyes of the one with the dagger.
A garden of luxury holds him off, as if he
Could not dare to hurt what pleases even him.
Yet deep within that garden lies a man gasping
His last breaths. Why he, why now? He has
Given his message to the world and is ready
To go. A violin played from on high penetrates
His final thoughts beneficently. There is more
To our lives than autumn leaves, yet in their colors
They sum what we had been, beneath the clouds
Which gently roll as cumulus, pliant, sympathetic--
Summing our lives as something real, done, lasting.
