    With Bell, Book and Candle

    My morning is mid-night
    Fancy and Free
    Lust without Love ... Good without God
    A puppet without strings
    Far beyond the fountainheads of faith and fear
    With bell, book and candle we peer into the depth of an allegoric abyss
    With bell, book and candle we seek the falsehood in the truth
    With bell, book and candle we seek the truth in the falsehood
    From the art and the heart of darkness we cry out to hasten the marrow

    From the art and the heart of darkness we cry out to herald the departure of the winter winds

    Morning mist and summer dew shall wash the wasteland of our spirit
    Morning mist and summer dew shall wash the wasteland of our soul
    From the art and heart of darkness within the Ivy Manor
    With bell, book and candle we shall hasten the marrow
    With its mid-summers hopes
    With its mid-summers dreams
    With its mid-summers passions
    That eventually fades unto its mid-summers night

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.
