Carmen 25

I have a crystal and your memory

And both of them can be spun in fingers

But they are more trouble than spider's webs

With venom dripping onto Loki's face

(I turn aside, every slight dull moment)

And tapestries are painted with ashes.


Give me time, and I will make you so proud

That the very heavens drop in cascades.

The wind weeps when it hears my voice.
