• Where Roses would not dare to go,

    What Heart would risk the way —

    And so I send my Crimson Scouts

    To sound the Enemy —

  • Where Ships of Purple — gently toss —

    On Seas of Daffodil —

    Fantastic Sailors — mingle —

    And then — the Wharf is still!

  • Where Thou art — that — is Home —

    Cashmere — or Calvary — the same —

    Degree — or Shame —

    I scarce esteem Location's Name —

    So I may Come —


    What Thou dost — is Delight —

    Bondage as Play — be sweet —

    Imprisonment — Content —

    And Sentence — Sacrament —

    Just We two...
