When I watched the Red Sunset

When I watched the red sunset;
When the clouds, the colors were arrayed in the sky above me;
When I was shown the visions of the days before and days after, to memorize, wait, and anticipate them;
When I, sitting, heard the winds, where they gusted with much ferocity through the canyon,
How soon, unaccountable, I became excited and restless;
Till standing and pacing around, I ran home as alone as I’d arrived,
In the soundless still street, and after hope upon hope,
Walked in the house to nothing I knew from a half-remembered life.
