Description My Old High School recalls the past
In large picture frames.

The pictures are small, crowds--
(Turbam ego (solus) video)
Standing still as they are I
Am, large while they are small.

One for each class: faces crowded
Into a pile in the chain gates of
These wooden frames.So crowded,
Little faces jostle for position,
And every addition diminishes them all,
   Pushing.

O Malthus,
We look out at crowds sometimes.
I look and think of you and I shudder alone
Thinking of you and not because food is scarce
But because the light that lights men's eyes is so
Scarce.
