Of promises dead and

Sin's Benison

...It comes as something of surprise.
We need the broken figurines.
the malice we expressed,

...it is not with sorrow that I pack it away
in tissued hope of long past days

That I've had all the year---
The Christmas lights of your two eyes
Whenever you appear.
