Rhyme Scheme: A B C D E F G H I J I K L E L L M L D

A carpet into which the suffering landscape palesA
-
Perhaps the Sea of Galilee a boat in the galeB
-
Golden things fall out of storm cloudsC
-
Insanity that seizes the gentle humanD
-
The old waters gurgle a blue laughterE
-
And sometimes a dark pit opensF
-
The possessed are reflected in cold metalsG
-
Drops of blood fall on glowing platesH
-
And a countenance decays in black nightI
-
Flags which babble in sinister vaultsJ
-
Other things remind on the birds' flightI
-
Over the gallows the crows' mystical signsK
-
Coppery snakes sink in spiky grassesL
-
In pillows of incense a smile whore like and cleverE
-
Good Friday's children stand blindly at fencesL
-
In the mirror of dark gutters full of rottennessL
-
The sighing recovery of the dyingM
-
And angels who go through white eyesL
-
From lids dimming golden redemptionD
