Her Sorrow is Deep


A fathomless and boundless deep,

There we wander, there we weep.

—Wm. Blake


Her sorrow

Is


As deep,

As dark,


As the

Ocean.


The fathomless

Bottom


Of her soul


Swarms

With


Alien life—

Dark and ancient


Tides,

Glass-eyed phantoms,


Pale as moons—

Spectral whispers


Of the dead.
