A black
choking and restless
... someone's lost this night.

On the forest shore
he stands lamenting
... footprints.

Yielding mind
yielding heart
... yielding earth.

A thickness
of what's missing
... from an empty room.

... this meadow.

World too little
and world too much
for some few bloods.

The must of harsh clarity -
but then ... sepia mists
forests of wondrous murk!
