And so when the chequered tablecloths
And the laughs of merry harlots
Behold this last putrescent shril??
To the foetid bre??

A blue river under an old bridge
And colour on a faded canvas
And esoteric similes of friendly women

Against the dark and raving pain
Of a poet’s eye and then I thought of Beatrice
