Let Us play Yesterday –
I – the Girl at School –
You – and Eternity – the
untold Tale –

 

Easing my famine
At my Lexicon –
Logarithm – had I – for Drink –
′Twas a dry Wine –

 

Somewhat different – must be –
Dreams tint the Sleep –
Cunning Reds of Morning
Make the Blind – leap –

 

Still at the Egg-life –
Chafing the Shell –
When you troubled the Ellipse –
And the Bird fell –

 

 ¦

 

Manacles be dim – they say –
To the new Free –
Liberty – commoner –
Never could – to me –

 

′Twas my last gratitude
When I slept – at night –
′Twas the first Miracle –
Let in – with Light –

 

Can the Lark resume the Shell –
Easier – for the Sky –
Would′nt Bonds hurt more
Than Yesterday?

 

Would′nt Dungeons sorer grate
On the Man – free –
Just long enough to taste –
Then – doomed new –

 

 ¦

 

God of the Manacle
As of the Free –
Take not my Liberty
Away from Me –

Alter! When the Hills do –

Falter! When the Sun

Question is His Glory

Be the Perfect One –

 

Surfeit! When the Daffodil

Doth of the Dew –

Even as Herself – Sir –

I will – Of You –
