By the Water's Edge
I dream of death and decay,
of doom, dirt and dust;
waltzing among wintry,
windswept graves wretched.
My refrain and rhapsody ragged,
my agony and anguish aches;
then, I am falling,
fathomless and fearful;
I wake by a winding water's edge,
weeping under a whimsical weeping willow . . .
