UNDER THE TOWER
a tower that sees all tomorrow
a wind that wanders
in a world unknowing
a tower that sees all tomorrow
a wind that wanders
in a world unknowing
ray that cuts true
in the light of evening
the sound was the whisper
of ages gone by
the light was the silver
in briars of summer
bare in the brunt of November
rocks bigger than a man
are markers like milestones
and grimace at the wind oncoming
soon will be the meeting
of moonlight and madness
when stars declaim a universal song
when day withdraws
to forest stillness
in black swamps and solitude
in accents of solitude and pain
cry out! cry out!
wind, cloud, rock, mountain
