Poems By Eloise Crow TO— Heart CANDLES Sad as the sadness Of running feet— Trapped— Made to walk Where the free wind Follows hard rocks, Flings loud laughter To black skies. Heart Gay as the yellow velvet Drifting pieces From the fragrant patchwork Of roses In grassy corners. Cou rage To laugh at free winds To find there is no sadness In heel-crushed velvet On damp paths Only sadness In hard rocks, In hands that beat Where there is no softness. Bruised hands Beating against your heart. I was there watching When you came Saw you cross to the candles. Shadow-choked Fluttering, moth-like flames, (Wings beating against the darkness) Bending, with your nearness. You killed them with your breathing. Leaving a faint odor. Smoking ends— Ked pools in silver Your heels clicked. You were gone. I could not stop you! I was left alone With thoughts that beat Heavy against the darkness Love killed, Like the flames of candles. When shadows choke And heart-break breathing Reaches them. The air holds Remembrance, In the shadows only Is there feeling DUSK SONG The ghost fires burned in the clouds At sunset Crimson signals The spirit wind calls, Phantom people answer Their misty, dark dusk song Swells the whispers of the spirit wind To deeper—sadder murmurs. It softens, passes onward Rises Dying And the long slow grasses Tug to follow Dying Blue smoke. A star shines through. Gray ashes Where the signal fires Burned.
