Such dire grief at 63
To discover your life givn’
away, with the wind
to thoughts of “they want”
‘stead of losing thine-self
to thine dreams, thy wants
See they know not
what ’tis they want
They follow the tide
and cast their nets
To dreams and fates
of blind mice
Yet you cast yours too
and sail’d same tides
Conformed same nets
and sold thine dreams
Now discover’d ’tis late
to live like eighteen
