Second Prize Winner <strong>1964</strong><br />

What wood is this?<br />

It has no summer birds.<br />

These voiceless, feathered fiends<br />

that flit about these wind­gnarled limbs.<br />

They sing no song to me.<br />

I could have found a gentler<br />

spring across the Acheron.<br />

Instead I found a path<br />

amid this wood.<br />

It leads to madness.<br />

Arlin Wallace<br />

FINALE<br />

Once again I begin<br />

On the eves of time<br />

To toast away the tears<br />

Which fall dread­down<br />

not a soul to cleanse<br />

nor a memory to erase.<br />

From our love<br />

(of no true name)<br />

Comes no tomorrow—<br />

Dread­down falls today.<br />
