Disillusion

Moireen Fox a Cheavasa

DARKNESS and the wind are between the tall stones of the temple.

No priest is there, no voice, no fire on the altar;

Silence alone and darkness, and the mocking wind.

This is the end of dreams. O empty sky,

O deaf and silent earth, O broken dreams!

I have besought the dust that my hands hold.
