from September Twilight
I gathered you together,
I can dispense with you –
I'm tired of you, chaos
of the living world –
I can only extend myself
for so long to a living thing.
I summoned you into existence
by opening my mouth, by lifting
my little finger, shimmering
blues of the wild
aster, blossom
of the lily, immense,
gold-veined –
you come and go: eventually
I forget your names.
You come and go, every one of you
flawed in some way,
in some way compromised: you are worth
one life, no more than that.
– Louise Glück (1992)
