A Night

This essence then...
Wrung from a night, and a night; too close
To the vessel's fill it drips and runs
From open lips, 'twixt teeth and tongues.

Such dread harvest
Reaped by night, and a night; too long
This vintage I have trod yet ne'er supped
From amber chalice of her hands cupped.

Blacker yet,
Wreathed in night, and a night; too dark
The heart where moonbeams, fearful, crept
Gleaming along glaciers once tears I wept.
