The Best Player of the Game

And it ends with me.
And I am The Lost Seafarer
With a thousand names
To take the place of one.
And I have a million reasons
To discontinue
And disregard.
And I have the taste 
Of Virginia Woolf.
And maybe she
Was the culprit
And not I. 
But...
It never stops until
I am the culprit,
Drowning in the friscalating dusklight.

Samantha, I really like your writing and hope to read more. "Virginia Woolf" is an outstanding play and I caught it on Broadway with Colleen Dewhurst and Ben Gazarra before they died. Very powerful, just like your poetry, Carolyn
