These Days

It is strange in these days how no one seems to care.

And see the way you lived, but I don't know!

And made dust and dropped stove-length sticks of wood,
Sweet-scented stuff when the breeze drew across it.

Where its black body cut into the sky.

Heard we the clarion summons, followed the master-lure-Gold!
