from “In Beauty Bright”



In beauty-bright and such it was like Blake’s

lily and though an angel he looked absurd

dragging a lily out of a beauty-bright store

wrapped in tissue with a petal drooping,

nor was it useless—you who know it know

how useful it is—and how he would be dead

in a minute if he were to lose it though

how do you lose a lily?
