"I want" it pleaded All its life
I want was chief it said
When Skill entreated it the last
And when so newly dead
I could not deem it late to hear
That single steadfast sigh
The lips had placed as with a "Please"
Toward Eternity

I never felt at Home Below -
And in the Handsome Skies
I shall not feel at Home I know
I don't like Paradise

To die takes just a little while
They say it doesn't hurt
It's only fainter by degrees
And then it's out of sight

A Weight with Needles on the pounds
To push, and pierce, besides
That if the Flesh resist the Heft

As the Starved Maelstrom laps the Navies
As the Vulture teased
Forces the Broods in lonely Valleys
As the Tiger eased

A poor torn heart a tattered heart
That sat it down to rest
Nor noticed that the Ebbing Day
Flowed silver to the West
