The Web Poetry Corner - M A Heathcote - When a savage sings

When a savage sings

by

M A Heathcote



Poetry is in the heart of misery
Because when a savage sings
She hears deaths alluring wings
Subdividing the savagery
In all but immortal things!

And as her savagery procures a song
Of bread and wine
Of milk-dew webs of time
What matter her music’s throng,
Her idle songs rhyme

What matter the molten breath
In their first words of death
What matter the alluring wings
If a god in heaven sings.
