under its spell

O speak,
Abettor of aging sorrows,
Of worsen'd 'morrows.

Speak ne'r of love,
Nor warmth,
Nor hunger.
These ancient drives,
Within thou slumber.

For thou hast wrenched,
Thy heart from mine.
O speak,
Dear love,
Of morbid time.

Yet speak no more,
My soul doth plea.
'Till final drops of blood hath ceased;

Shed from thou or shed from me,
Shall we ne'r know humility?

- Me

P.S. And here's a poem from my pet dog Lucy:

Ruff,
Ruff ruff,
Auuuur aurrrrr.

- Lucy

I think it's about chasing a bull dog over a bone - But you never really know with Lucy's poetry.

All of the beautiful things in this world - spiraling staircases, fluffy blue clouds - all of these treasures I hold dear to my heart as I cough up my lungs. I have been sick with a cold. I am going to steal your chicken noodle soup.
