“To speak of sorrow
works upon it
moves it from its
crouched place barring
the way to and from the soul's hall--

out in the light it
shows clear, whether
shrunken or known as
a giant wrath--
discrete
at least, where before

its great shadow joined
the walls and roof and seemed
to uphold the hall like a beam.”
Denise Levertov, The Sorrow Dance: Poems
