Dec 2016
The sun casts long shadows upon the lawn
As a man races for that distant pointβ€”
a heedless body of effulgent brawn,
brighter still than the gleaming stars at dawn.

In him the earth and heavens are joint,
like a chimeric animal, a faun.

But only insofar as he is free
from the accursed gleist and its petty plea.
