Analysis of THE VAGUE INNOCENTS OF RICHARD

KARY P. PIKE 1973 (Jamestown, NY)



THE VAGUE INNOSCENTS OF RICHARD

IT WAS NOT LOVE, THAT SET ITSELF OUT OF YOUR WORLD.

NOR, THE BLIND PANES, OF DALLIED STARS.

THEIR CARBON LIFE;

LOST IN MATHEMATICS.

SO… FOR YOUR EYES - THOSE TWO SCHOOLS OF LORED BLUE

CULL OF HAPPENED LEAVES,

FOR A GOBLINED PEN.

SO, UNTILL NOBLE HANDS CAN CORSE , AGAIN-

SHEATH THEIR LONGED SLEEP-

GREYED AS FAITHS LAST VOICE…
