the musics of falling rains
babbling & murmuring & whispering soft
--on The Most Anguished (distance) lost:

--It was a most wonderful Frame, all gold & black,
hanging from a well-hammered iron tack

against The Wall which you can see now
is so stark & wry &               

                   --Somehow
THE THING remains (which once The Frame
framed gracefully):                

    Nice ... But, all the same,
I would just as rather that whoever took
my lovely Frame off from its hook

should've also taken That Awful HAUL
that's still there hanging on the--empty--Wall:

It WAS such graceful, nice & costly a Frame

which gave That Stark THING There its Aim!
