Here autumn bleeds
---over the awning's frame
and the tall reeds,
---wholly held enflamed
In the receding pleads
of eastern summer deeds:
but lo! the autumn draws
the dawn to come.

---And lo, the morn
- - -of all our days
(the ones adorn
-- -with youthful ways)
are scoured from the myth
- --are scoured by the brain,
and mad the roaring of wind
-- -almost makes us sane.

Like a man in the depths
- - -of suffering
we give ourselves to rest
- - -and let The Self fling
and turn aback to the need--
from where comforts are released;
for time and memory
will come again!

O I loath the symbolism of the Corvette quarter;
It says, look how in bed we are with corporate!

I love how you have both formatted and presented this poem. I like your wording and the easy flow the words rode on.

But the last stanza was unexpected and, to me, threw the ending off.

But nonetheless, excellent poem!!
