Quietly into the Dark Night

Even though the old think of death

seldom do they go quietly into the dark

of the night… (without protest)

Frenzy, and fume, goes hand in hand

against the quiet darkness of the night—

those who once sang in the sun

brave and bronze and hard like meteors:

fight—, with eyes ablaze—once near

death, fight fierce with tears

against the dark night…

Against the dying of light!
