October Dawn
October is marigold, and yet
A glass half full of wine left out
To the dark heaven all night, by dawn
Has dreamed a premonition
Of ice across its eye as if
The ice-age had begun its heave.
The lawn overtrodden and strewn
From the night before, and the whistling green
Shrubbery are doomed 1. Ice
Has got its spearhead into place.
First a skin, delicately here
Restraining a ripple 2 from the air,
Soom plate and rivet 3 on pond and brook 4;
Then tons of chain and massive lock
To hold rivers. Then, sound by sight
Will Mammoth 5 and Sabre-toothed celebrate
Reunion while a fist of cold
Squeezes the fire at the core of the world,
Squeezes the fire at the core of the heart,
And now it is about to start.
