 by Louise Bogan

    And I, in the cage of sleep, on a stranger's breast,

    Shed tears, like a task not to be put away——

    In the false light, false grief in my happy bed,

    A labor1 of tears, set against joy's undoing2.

    I would not wake at your word, I had tears to say.

    I clung to the bars of the dream and they were said,

    And pain's derisive hand had given me rest

    From the night giving off flames, and the dark renewing
