CURSED NOSTALGIA III


You still cling to the trunk
Of the Great Old Oak
That stands above all the memories
Of those spring days of that cursed year.

You made me a vagabond
Wandering in search of your ruins
and the monuments that you had built
In the dark underworld of my dreams.

You are cursed.
The little child of the Old Banyan
Curses you and your great Old Oak,
Enveloping all the memories
Of the halfway houses of those
Drought-struck lands.

Like the west winds blowing past
the high tower on the hilltop,
Tonight the air comes creeping
Sweeping all memories forever,
Cursing the melancholy days.
