This night sky won't always have a meaning,

Won't always mean something it's meant before,

For if it did it would always be but

Merest meaning, and how then would I know

Myself from any other self, my self

Beached at the sea of my soul, as it turns

To sing back to this star-seized evening that's

Unreeling and unreals like Paradise?
