A red-roofed house is shining to the skies;
A house red-roofed and brilliant in the wind:
A house of colour filled with wandering eyes;

He has chalked to us a sum.

And closed the door behind me, all at once
A something in the air, intangible,
Yet stiff with meaning, struck my senses sick!-

And sifts down between the uneven roofs,
My mind begins to peek and peer.
It plays at ball in old, blue Chinese gardens,

Saviour A Willie
16 Minutes Of Life
16 minutes of life
He is fidgeting uncontrollably, breathing slowly but the alarm clocks harps happily.
Indicating 16 minutes of more pain..
Through the chaos of nerves in his brain he calculates the time, revaluates his plan and awaits death.

Except for the silver
Of the straw-paper,
And pick

It cost me, what with my daft management,

Obviously not, So here am I
Here I am the one who has seen the scenes of heaven.

Lie close around her; leave no room for mirth
With its harsh laughter, nor for sound of sighs.

In Port
Last, to the chamber where I lie
My fearful footsteps patter nigh,
And come out from the cold and gloom
Into my warm and cheerful room.

And seems so glad to have him come;
He jabs my ribs and wants to know
If here and there it's hurting some.

Edgar Albert Guest

She loved, who loved her not enough, being selfish
And a coward, the husband who neither loved nor
Used her, but was a ruthless watcher, and the band

Yet set him where our heroes are.

To feel the light, and hear the hum
Of bees, and smell the drying grass
And the sweet mint, because I had come

Through a chink too wide there comes in no wonder.
But here in the Advent-darkened room
Where the dry black bread and the sugarless tea

From bands of greedy heirs be free;
For these besiege the latest breath
Of fortune's favoured sons, not me.

Sanctified by God for eternal bliss.
A stage in paradise with a dulcet slumber,
That everyone get ere the judgement.

First see those ample melons-brindled o'er
With mingled green and brown is all the rind;
For they are ripe, and mealy at the core,
And saturate with the nectar of their kind.

Burning with broken promises and matrimonial taboos

And her dress, wet with tears,
That flow from heart bars,
