In modo d'una marcia. Un poco largamente
It is the sinuous
Elasticity
Of deep regret
That warps and wefts
Its fret upon the strings
As this grave march
Hesitates
Then turns upon itself
Weary
Suspended
Febrile with the stealth
Of lost despair
Soon beyond its ambling gait
Sprung on fear and contentment
Rising
Sighing
Funereal
As the teardrops of madness
(Ineffable sadness)
Lurk within
Precious in their “Perlen klar”
