We cringe in holes, back on forgotten dreams, and stare, snow-dazed,
Deep into grassier ditches.”

To pity and whatever moans in man
Before the last sea and the hapless stars;
Whatever mourns when many leave these shores;
Whatever shares
The eternal reciprocity of tears.”

But here the thing’s best left at home with friends.”
