To A. L. Gordon

In night-long days, in aeons

where all Time's nights are one;

where life and death sing paeans

as of Greeks and Galileans,

never begun or done;

where fate, the slow swooping condor,

comes glooming all the sky --

as you have pondered I ponder,

as you have wandered I wander,

as you have died, shall I die?
