		<description><![CDATA[This quiet dust was gentlemen and ladies
And lads and girls;
Was laughter and ability and sighing,
And frocks and curls;
This passive place a summer&#8217;s nimble mansion,
Where bloom and bees
Fulfilled their oriental circuit,
Then ceased like these.
-Emily Dickinson

		<description><![CDATA[The tongue of the waves tolled in the earth&#8217;s bell.
Blue rippled and soaked in the fire of blue.
The dried mouthbones of a shark in the hot swale
Gaped on nothing but sand on either side.
The bone tasted of nothing and smelled of nothing,
A scalded toothless harp, uncrushed, unstrung.
The joined arcs made the shape of birth and [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ninaalvarez.net&blog=851525&post=908&subd=ninaalvarez&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

We mourn this senseless planet of regret,
droughts, rust, rain, cadavers
that can&#8217;t tell us, but I promise
you one day the white fires
of Venus shall rage: the dead,
feeling that power, shall be lifted, and each
of us will have his resurrected one to tell him,
&#8220;Greetings. You will recover
or die. The [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ninaalvarez.net&blog=851525&post=904&subd=ninaalvarez&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

I have forgotten, and what arms have lain
Under my head till morning; but the rain
Is full of ghosts to-night, that tap and sigh
Upon the glass and listen for reply;
And in my heart there stirs a quiet pain,
For unremembered lads that not again
Will turn to me at [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=ninaalvarez.net&blog=851525&post=898&subd=ninaalvarez&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
