The Frightened Man
Read 'The Frightened Man' by 'Louise Bogan' and provide your summary and literary analysis in the comments section below.
In fear of the rich mouth
I kissed the thin,--
Even that was a trap
To snare me in.
Even she, so long
The frail, the scentless,
Is become strong,
And proves relentless.
O, forget her praise,
And how I sought her
Through a hazardous maze
By shafted water.
