TRESPASSERS

Table of Contents

Gauntly outlined, white and still,

Three haystacks peer above the hill;

Three aged rakes thrust sprawlingly

Fantastic tendons to the sky.

In the void and dismal yard

Farmer’s dog keeps rasping guard,

Challenging night’s trespassers,

The solemn legions of the stars;

Growling ignominious scorn

At Cancer and at Capricorn.

The yellow stars, serene and prim,

Tolerantly stare at him.
