You come in

      by the same door, you carry

what cannot be left for its own

  sweet shimmer of reason, its false blood;

the same tint I hear with the pulse it touches

  and will not melt. Such shading

of the rose to its stock tips the bolt

  from the sky, rising in its effect of what

motto we call peace talks. And yes the

  quiet turn of your page is the day

      tilting so, faded in the light.
