To every thing I do, there seems to be
This unbidden sense of monotony...
This sameness of desire, this guilt entire,
And this winless, windless monotony...
To every step I take, there flood in wake
Vermilion rivers of myriad motley vagaries...
Scarlet all in hue, feeding on my blue
And my restless, jestless memories...
To every breath I suck, there is nothing
But the promise of the next I may inhale...
As deflating in wait, I am held in my hate
And my girthless, mirthless veil...
To every lip I slit, there smiles at me
This unwelcome sight of saturnity...
This staccato of sleep, this silence deep,
And this endless, friendless saturnity...
