The World's Desire

Duels and Jewls

And brocade screens,

Spaceship-temples heavenbound,

The smile of a mysterious queen,

Flying titans and the treasured abyss.

They are all in my mind

As shaddows and winds

Of thing that were

Or might have been

But this world is not at all

Too dull for me

For she is here

In my mind with me.

Babies, dragons

And the fair-folk,

Angels, homes

And a good day's work,

Fields of perfume

And in a dark long road

A baffling fork.

They are all in my mind As shaddows and winds Of thing that were Or might have been But this world is not at all Too dull for me For she is here In my mind with me.
