Persephone
“
The poems circle the same question: how one’s soul could possibly endure when life’s beauty vanishes from reach.

― A Lesson in Vengeance
“
Be to her, Persephone,
All the things I might not be;
Take her head upon your knee.
She that was so proud and wild,
Flippant, arrogant and free,
She that had no need of me,
Is a little lonely child
Lost in Hell,—Persephone,
Take her head upon your knee;
Say to her, “My dear, my dear,
It is not so dreadful here.
