“Invited”
You must come up to my house some day and let me show you about. You must walk with me where the dragons play. (Perhaps we’ll let them out!) My attic room has a view sublime, and the walls a thousand snares to warp the very threads of time and bring up creatures from the slime to feed to the beast downstairs. The piano in my conservatoire
| plays to a different space, resounding chords like rich perfume: it’s half past three when clocks resume, and time again takes place. So come enjoy a walk with me in my uncommon garden! We’ll find a strain of classic cane that causes blood to harden. It will surpass all tests -- do pack your travelling chests. Companionship would be a boon. Oh... Do you think you’ll make it soon? (We’re running out of guests.) MCMLXI et rev MMXIV |
