from From the Cupola
Midnight I dream I dream The slow moon eludes
one stilled cloud Din of shimmerings From across the Sound
what may have begun as no more
than a willow's sleepwalking outline quickens detaches
comes to itself in the cupola
panics from pane to pane and then impulsively
surrendering fluttering by now the sixteenfold
wings of the cherubim unclipped by faith or reason
stands there my dream made whole
over whose walls again
a red vine black in moonlight crawls
made habitable Each cell of the concrete
fills with sweet light The wave breaks
into tears Come if it's you Step down
to where I Stop For at your touch the dream
cracks the angel tenses flees
– James Merrill (1966)
