Ode to E. Hemingway

“....But after I had got them out and shut the door
and turned off the lights it wasn’t any good.
It was like saying good-by to a statute.
After a while I went out and left the hospital
and walked back to the hotel in the rain..” ​

Ernest Hemingway, A Farewell to Arms 1929​

The response was, but a cry from
heaven,
a supple breeze that pressed the way of wind
onto the place
where her heart
lay. ​

From a single piercing blow
she surrendered golden hairs
and amongs the yellow snow
she lay. ​
