[poem] golden sorrow and dark delight
i am the plowed furrow
and i am the blight
i am an infant’s birth
and i am the shadow night
i am love itself
and i am spite
i am the glint of spring
and i am winter’s bite
i am all that is wrong
and i am all that is right
i am a tender kiss
and lust without requite
i am the leaping stag
and i am the tiger bright
i am the mirror with no reflection
i am your eyes and you are my sight
i am the darkness
and i am the light
i see inward and outward, too
i am left and i am right
embrace me and embrace yourself
feel beyond golden sorrow and dark delight
