The Dream of the Blue Bride

I

I have flown
Through my gown
Through my window
Through my eyes
To the purple rain
To the purple sky
To the purple fly
The fly saw me
The fly bit me
The fly bit me!
I shrieked!
I cried!
I died.

I I

I fell back
Through my ghoul
Through my soul
Through my window
To the red room
To the red gloom
To the red groom
He slept
He snored!
He snored!
I cried!
I shrieked!
I lived.
