SOOTHSAYERS, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: The winds that, gypsy-wise, foretold
Last Line: No vestiges remain.
Alternate Author Name(s): Father Tabb
Subject(s): Wind


The winds that, gypsy-wise, foretold
The fortune of today,
At twilight, with the gathered gold
Of sunset, stole away;

And of their cloud accomplices
That prophesied the rain
Upon the night-forsaken skies
No vestiges remain.
