Open the door now. <br />Go roll up the collar of your coat <br />To walk in the changing scarf of mist. <br /> <br />Tell your sins here to the pearl fog <br />And know for once a deepening night <br />Strange as the half-meanings <br />Alurk in a wise woman's mousey eyes. <br /> <br /> Yes, tell your sins <br />And know how careless a pearl fog is <br />Of the laws you have broken.<br /><br />Carl Sandburg<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/pearl-fog/
