The Golden Spindle Lies On The Floor



the golden spindle lies on the floor
where it was flung; whole
civilizations sleep

and now: an old spell is
revisited and ancient lamentations
understood-

up such a narrow flight of
stairs, a broad doom
awaited-

yet I will go from room to
room, seeking lost
kingdoms; enacting-

every possible rose adagio-
