You Can't Can Love
I don't know how the fishes feel, but I can't help thinking it odd,
That a gay young flapper of a female eel should fall in love with a cod.
Yet-that's exactly what she did and it only goes to prove,
That' what evr you do you can't put the lid on that crazy feeling Love.

It stirs the forest darkness, the darkness of his beard,

Ghost of a land by the ghost of a sea.

Daphne
Daphne! Ladon's daughter, Daphne! Set thyself in silver light,

Flying love of bright Apollo, - fleeting type of faultless maid!
