(for Robert Bly)
This is a country of winter
Of old men and wars
And ghosts defaced in a white mistOf trees with long black limbs
And snow banks
Piled up high against the back of the house
Here the sky is a kind of blanket
Or shroud
For the dead
And daylight is like a secret
Hidden
In a book that no one has yet to open
