Our loves into corpses or wives;
And marriage and death and division
Make barren our lives.”

My mangled youth lies dead beneath the heap,
My days have crackled and gone up in smoke,
Have puffed and burst as sun-starts on a stream.”

I could not, I was a silly broken umbrella
and oblivion would not kiss me. For three days it
was thus.”
