Oh, dear sweet one. If you ever feel beneath the glass I could only ask of you your promise to hold fast. It is not the tree and withered figs your blossom-body, chaste, that sets aside a destiny and fits you with a mask. I am not Buddy, Gordon, Irwin, Demons in your past. I'll wait till Spring to call for them Ms. Greenwood and Ms. Plath.
