Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Poems
Poised on the crescent moon, she stands serene, Whose eyes from purple into violet pale, As ever she lets fall the drifting veil Clouding her beauty with its twilight sheen; Hers are grey breasts death laid his lips between Lest ever any subtle lover quail Before her kiss, remembering life, and fail To taste the ?esh no eyes live, having seen.
Remorseless to the end of time, she waits On tides none other ears than hers divine, Knowing all roads lead last unto the gates That swing into the silence of her shrine Where crushed beneath her feet, once pitiless fates, Like sleeping serpents round her ankles twine.
