After torc red on sy faces
After ty silence in the gardens
After tony places
ting and the crying
Prison and palace and reverberation
Of tant mountains
he who was living is now dead
e who were living are now dying
ittle patience
er but only rock
Rock and no er and the sandy road
tains
ains of rock er
If ter we sop and drink
Amongst t stop or think
S is dry and feet are in the sand
If ter amongst the rock
Dead mountain mouteet cannot spit
and nor lie nor sit
t even silence in tains
But dry sterile t rain
t even solitude in tains
But red sullen faces sneer and snarl
From doors of mudcracked houses
If ter
And no rock
If there were rock
And also er
And er
A spring
A pool among the rock
If ter only
Not the cicada
And dry grass singing
But sound of er over a rock
-trees
Drip drop drip drop drop drop drop
But ter
hird who walks always beside you?
, together
But we road
ther one walking beside you
Gliding in a brole, hooded
I do not know wher a man or a woman
- But her side of you?
is t sound he air
Murmur of maternal lamentation
hose hooded hordes swarming
Over endless plains, stumbling in cracked earth
Ringed by t horizon only
is ty over tains
Cracks and reforms and bursts in t air
Falling towers
Jerusalem Athens Alexandria
Vienna London
Unreal
A ight
And fiddled wrings
And bats light
led, and beat their wings
And crawled head downward down a blackened wall
And upside doowers
tolling reminiscent bells, t kept the hours
And voices singing out of empty cisterns and exed wells.
In tains
