Dance then with the night
you don't like the colour of day
shut away the moon and stars' benign light
in the dark furtively hide away-

what is your heart's secret plight?
are there memories hurtful and grey?
what scenes of the past must be set right?
for what forgiveness would you pray?
* after Shelley, John Clare,  Christina Rossetti, the Bronte sisters and Thomas Hardy's
