white-skin nothing tempest roared
foressssst but asssss and drifted
all ashes slowly lightly
entered youth eyes time
grasses grasses of
Rocking to and fro and moaning
Rocking roc king
Rock ing wreaking
wreck age reck less
rectify recollect
Rocking to and fro and moaning
like an infant cross-legged
in his first assembly,
the young girl in the corner
of a psychiatric ward
sad self-hypnosis
Saw his lovely Minnehaha
Just a joke nowadays
A Mini ha! ha!
Oh the long and dreary winter,
