Analysis of And She Was
Laughing demons were deep blue
Sky was frightened on the skyward
Scorching sunbeam marched on
The dusty yellow leafs were diffused
A sparrow was crying somewhere
Breezes were walking silently
Time was settled into the legs
Like the roots of a large tree
Nothing happened but a train left
And she was inside the train
