Fond companions nest brutality between clouds
On sharp tacks copied by time & sails.
Moonlit & sun-worn until murmuring slowed,
Sympathetic travelers aroused swells
To shower and balm grief with turbulent praise.
Like conspicuous torrents,
Mercy steamed wantonness overboard
Avoiding prow loss, misdirection, and puzzlements
Where biography compasses precise stewards.
