Alteration
mourning cloak
on daybreak gravel,
royal in the lithe of light,
indispensable,
pebbles now precious,
perch for the supernal
flaunt.
no other moment
of my lean, grey stride
to be touched by such
inexpressible wings:
rich purple
aureate, depthless,
none of me,
beyond this lucky token,
ever to measure
such a life.
