Yes, and Indifference changed from Disinterestedness because that's what Frost really meant to write.

The Death of the Hard Drinker Who Refused to Believe in Indifference
Drunk again and cast out in the snow.
Drunk again with no-where else to go.
I tramp through fields beneath celestial light.
Oh, I have been one acquainted with the night.
The ardent constellations -- how they spark and smile
On me, on this sad earth a little while.
I am drunk because the universe is love
Confirmed by that lady in her chair above:
Cassiopeia, pointing out the way
To the poet's home -- just where I'll stay.
A poet's love who writes of leaf and bough
Beside me in the wilderness. Paradise enow.
I knock the door. Oh, it's Robert Frost.
"Begone, you souse. Away, you must be lost."
The door shut firmly. Oh there is warmth within!
I'll try again but now some more fine gin.
This poet once wrote of a lockless door.
Surely, he will come once more.
Surely, he will come once more.

& then your body
one long bone
blood mists around
& in
singing clear as glass
as alone
