Seeking Samuel Taylor

The mind, a map of missive source-

The heart, a compass of divorce-

The ticking beats around a tread 

Upon, below, beside a thread 

Connecting water, weary streams-

Into dimensions building dreams

Exposing subtle sorrow, loss-

A Coleridge laden albatross-

The beak, a feather, and a bone

Extinct except for dust and stone-

Beneath the ocean in a shoal,

I trek the temperamental soul ...
