TwilightT.
Red in the West.
Dimness.
A glow on the wood.
The teams plod home to rest.
The wild duck come to glean.
O souls not understood,
What a wild cry in the pool;
What things have the farm ducks
That they cry so--huddle and cry?
Only the soul that goes.
Eager.
Eager.
Flying.
Over the globe of the moon,
Over the wood that glows.
Wings linked.
Necks a-strain,
A rush and a wild crying.
A cry of the long
In the reeds of a steel lagoon,
In a land that no man knows.
