Waiting for happiness?
It’s more like waiting for death.
The soldiers will salute
and three chunks of lead
will slam into your chest.
Your eyes will then flash red.
No question of joy.
Too old now, all bloom gone.
Waiting for what else now but
black muzzles in a square yard.
A square letter. I think
there may be spells in the ink.
No hope. And no one is
too old to face death
or such a square envelope.
1923
My ear attends to you
My ear attends to you,
as a mother hears in her sleep.
To a feverish child, she whispers
as I bend over you.
