For AL: a Depression






In this last moment all the interested parties
want for meaning.
Call it the deepest kind of social rites
between the real and the gaudy abstract mind.

But once the diction is plain
the ice flies too close to the sun; excruciating grief

is recognizable in our own rehabilitative striving
past and a set of
fragmentary
inventions
thoughts and feelings.
