Review

The rooms are here: see with me how the windows
Are cracked in remembered patterns. There were also
Particular songs: voices heard in the evening
And another evening the same: shadows observed:
Leaving a lighted church on a winter night:
Walks in a latesummer pasture. These insured
A way to whatever it was, a thing to come
Of all such growing united. Now to explain
The dissolution: beneath what cornicework
Of closely ignored buildings, and among which faces:
Above what sound of shovels on drifted walks
Beyond drawn shades on a lately forgotten morning.
