                                         THE LONELY SEARCH

                       Innate tremendous beauty dwells in words

                      That surpass all visions --- wilder than the shade of purest blue--

                       No trilling song that I have ever heard,

                       No surrogate-- can surpass the purist elegance that I pursue.

                     
                       Each night my dreams entice that I will find

                       A kindred body whisp'ring words I long to hear--

                       But--waking fear my restless hungry mind

                       Holds me doomed in isolation...dreadful fear.
