Ghost of a mountain
And ghost of a moon;
Night birds sink droopingly
Over the dune
Clouds drifting hazily
Stars blurring through;
Darkness come close to me--
Darkness and you.
Mist on the water
And mist in the sky;
Netted with silver
The waves ripple by.
_Ghost of a solitude_
_Lit with dead stars._
_You have your memories_
_I have my bars!_
