"And Suddenly, / There on the tall steps, above the sea of faces, / Friends and townspeople, my mind / Swept out beyond the city limit / To the little cemetery, the plot where / Redolent in the earth, my mother lay buried, and beside her / The naked hole that would take down my father, / Darkly glowing, a subsumed luster, / Numinous with the haunting infusion of death.".
