Justice in the meadow grass
Flowed beneath the eaves
We sheltered for the storm to pass
Beneath that one dead tree
Unhinging the wet, sharp jaws
Of hypothermic leprosy 
You spoke as if to calm the wind
To bid farewell it's furious life
The storm, the tree, and you hung still
Heaven's soft son, to die.
