THE STARS ARE OLD, THAT STOOD FOR ME, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
Last Line: Twas victory was slain
Subject(s): Aging


The Stars are old, that stood for me -
The West a little worn -
Yet newer glows the only Gold
I ever cared to earn -

Presuming on that lone result
Her infinite disdain
But vanquished her with my defeat
'Twas Victory was slain
