Daniel Cwiak Poet Pantoum

Tragic Tale

Oh, to read the tragic tale...

   Whether it be Scarlet Letter or Cursed Whale

   Blithely do the words encompass the mind

   Lifting the haze of their mysterious veil.

   Whether it be Scarlet Letter or Cursed Whale

   Can humor ever compare ?

   Lifting the haze of their mysterious veil

   Nary one ever written could depths pursue

   Can humor ever compare ?

   Blithely do the words encompass the mind

   Nary one ever written could depths pursue

   Oh, to read the tragic tale...
