It was concupiscence that brought me to the state: all bone and a bit of skinto keep the bone within. Flesh is no heavy burden for one possessed of littleand accustomed to its loss. I lean to love, which leaves me lean, till lean turn into lack.
A wanton bone, I sing my songand travel where the bone is blownand extricate true love from lustas any man of wisdom must. Then wherefore should I rageagainst this pilgrimagefrom gravel unto gravel?

Laughter or tears, for we have only known. Surpassing vanity: vain things alone. Have driven our perverse and aimless band.

Here is Alfred Noyes' haunting ghost story . This was my. favorite poem as a young boy; my mother would recite it to me and my sisters.
I later learned that Alfred Noyes died the year I was born, 1. Her Kindby Anne Sexton. I have gone out, a possessed witch,haunting the black air, braver at night; dreaming evil, I have done my hitchover the plain houses, light by light: lonely thing, twelve- fingered, out of mind.
A woman like that is not a woman, quite. I have been her kind. I have found the warm caves in the woods,filled them with skillets, carvings, shelves,closets, silks, innumerable goods; fixed the suppers for the worms and the elves: whining, rearranging the disaligned.
A woman like that is misunderstood. I have been her kind. I have ridden in your cart, driver,waved my nude arms at villages going by,learning the last bright routes, survivorwhere your flames still bite my thighand my ribs crack where your wheels wind. A woman like that is not ashamed to die. I have been her kind. Luke Havergalby Edward Arlington Robinson. Go to the western gate, Luke Havergal,There where the vines cling crimson on the wall,And in the twilight wait for what will come.
The leaves will whisper there of her, and some,Like flying words, will strike you as they fall; But go, and if you listen, she will call. Go to the western gate, Luke Havergal—Luke Havergal. No, there is not a dawn in eastern skies. To rift the fiery night that's in your eyes; But there, where western glooms are gathering. The dark will end the dark, if anything: God slays Himself with every leaf that flies,And hell is more than half of paradise. No, there is not a dawn in eastern skies—In eastern skies.
Out of a grave I come to tell you this,Out of a grave I come to quench the kiss. That flames upon your forehead with a glow. That blinds you to the way that you must go. Yes, there is yet one way to where she is,Bitter, but one that faith may never miss.
Out of a grave I come to tell you this—To tell you this. There is the western gate, Luke Havergal,There are the crimson leaves upon the wall,Go, for the winds are tearing them away,—Nor think to riddle the dead words they say,Nor any more to feel them as they fall; But go, and if you trust her she will call. There is the western gate, Luke Havergal—Luke Havergal. Sea Feversby Agnes Wathall. No ancient mariner I,Hawker of public crosses,Snaring the passersby.
With my necklace of albatrosses. I blink no glittering eye. Between tufts of gray sea mosses. Nor in the high road ply. My trade of guilts and glosses.
But a dark and inward sky. Tracks the flotsam of my losses. No more becalmed to lie,The skeleton ship tosses.
The Listenersby Walter De La Mare'Is there anybody there?' said the Traveller,Knocking on the moonlit door; And his horse in the silence champed the grasses. Of the forest's ferny floor: And a bird flew up out of the turret,Above the Traveller's head.
And he smote upon the door again a second time; 'Is there anybody there?' he said. But no one descended to the Traveller; No head from the leaf- fringed sill. Leaned over and looked into his grey eyes,Where he stood perplexed and still. But only a host of phantom listeners. That dwelt in the lone house then.
Stood listening in the quiet of the moonlight. To that voice from the world of men: Stood thronging the faint moonbeams on the dark stair,That goes down to the empty hall,Hearkening in an air stirred and shaken. By the lonely Traveller's call. And he felt in his heart their strangeness,Their stillness answering his cry,While his horse moved, cropping the dark turf,'Neath the starred and leafy sky; For he suddenly smote on the door, even.
Louder, and lifted his head: —'Tell them I came, and no one answered,That I kept my word,' he said. Never the least stir made the listeners,Though every word he spake. Fell echoing through the shadowiness of the still house. From the one man left awake: Ay, they heard his foot upon the stirrup,And the sound of iron on stone,And how the silence surged softly backward,When the plunging hoofs were gone. Toad, that under cold stone Days and nights hast thirty one Swelter’d venom sleeping got, Boil thou first i’ the charmed pot. Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn and cauldron bubble. Fillet of a fenny snake, In the cauldron boil and bake; Eye of newt, and toe of frog, Wool of bat, and tongue of dog, Adder’s fork, and blind- worm’s sting, Lizard’s leg, and howlet’s wing, For a charm of powerful trouble, Like a hell- broth boil and bubble.
Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn and cauldron bubble. In the Fogby Giovanni Pascoli translated by Geoffrey Brock. I stared into the valley: it was gone— wholly submerged! A vast flat sea remained, gray, with no waves, no beaches; all was one. And here and there I noticed, when I strained, the alien clamoring of small, wild voices: birds that had lost their way in that vain land. And high above, the skeletons of beeches, as if suspended, and the reveries of ruins and of the hermit’s hidden reaches. And a dog yelped and yelped, as if in fear, I knew not where nor why.
Perhaps he heard strange footsteps, neither far away nor near—echoing footsteps, neither slow nor quick, alternating, eternal. Down I stared, but I saw nothing, no one, looking back. The reveries of ruins asked: “Will no one come?” The skeletons of trees inquired: “And who are you, forever on the go?”I may have seen a shadow then, an errant shadow, bearing a bundle on its head.
I saw—and no more saw, in the same instant. All I could hear were the uneasy screeches of the lost birds, the yelping of the stray, and, on that sea that lacked both waves and beaches,the footsteps, neither near nor far away.
