So in Greece when the sun goes down and I sit on the old broken-down Aegean port watching the long, long skies over Thessaly and sense all that raw land that rolls in one unbelievable huge bulge over to the East Coast, and all that sea going, all the people dreaming in the immensity of it, and in Troy I know by now the children must be crying in the land where they let the children cry, and tonight the stars'll be out, and don't you know that God is Zeus? the evening star must be drooping and shedding her sparkler dims on the mountains, which is just before the coming of complete night that blesses the earth, darkens all rivers, cups the peaks and folds the final shore in, and nobody, nobody knows what's going to happen to anybody besides the forlorn rags of growing old, I think of Hector of Troy, I even think of Old Hector, the tamer of horses we never knew, I think of Hector of Troy.

The End.
