SUN- SET TUNE EVE-TIME AND SONG
==================================
Yet the the moisture - laden clouds
float
on the defeated autumn sky
with vacant dry breeze
loading all breasts around
with suffocating despair !
Let it depart
this abortive spell of love
let this eve-time visit in full
and all fragrance of love or reminiscence receede.
Let the overwhelming sky or space
with all breathing air stand still .
Let Time itself now
swoon or die in slumber .
