The darkish ways are full of twist <br />For what is here of mood so true, <br />All worldly thoughts only a gist <br />Of what is I and what is you. <br /> <br />The song we know we break and tear <br />If differently to ear it'll play; <br />We can not much the unknown bear <br />And less so if it for long won't stay. <br /> <br />Each thought then grave will dig its own <br />And be of worth what words consist, <br />The darkish ways - worthy anon <br />When a kindle will light its grist.<br /><br />Peter S.
