H.D.

Hilda Doolittle was her name
Briefly remembered in Bethleham, PA
Her poetry was chapters upon chapters
The arts council with its sign for tourists
"Oh bring me burning blue!"
A single line ripped and dangling
"Don't get lost in the burning blue"
They told us cheerily as they gave us directions
It was all they ever saw of her.
