Fancy That

Ornament glosses the meaning
Metaphor displaces by dreaming
Emblems contain,then extend hereabout
So now,go figure it out.

"Emblems contain, then extend..." What a great line, Brian! Thanks for giving us a better concept of metaphysical poetry. Enjoyed reading this one -- so true to the form! Love, Carolyn
