Amidst the frenzied clamorous
Backdrop of cicadas readying
To draw the curtain and call it
Still another night, the dumb
Eye strains before finally
Falling upon fold after fold
Of newly-wrought furrows
Under the wrinkled arching
Brows of row after row
Of stately silent grotesques—
My arrogant fellow bit players,
If you please, please observe how
Once more the stage is being set
For yet another humbling
Twilight.
