Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCEFGFBHCFBFIn the broken light in owl weather | A |
Webs on the lawn where the leaves end | B |
I took the thin moon and the sky for cover | A |
To pick the cat's brains and descend | B |
A weedy hill I found him groveling | C |
Inside the summerhouse a shadowed bulge | D |
Furred and somnolent mdash I bring | C |
I said besides this dish of liver and an edge | E |
Of cheese the customary torments | F |
And the usual wonder why we live | G |
At all and why the world thins out and perishes | F |
As it has done for me sieved | B |
As I am toward silences Where | H |
Are we now Do we know anything | C |
mdash Now on another night his look endures | F |
Give me the dish he said | B |
I had his answer wise as yours | F |
