The Permanent Vacation .
The daring bluer in her muzzy spirit ,
Lives lone in the green retreat ,
For her tidal bath ,youthful mirth ,
Are gone, leaving sad satiety .
Her crazy whims whine ,
And the poison -flooded cobra fires ,
Where ! where ! where! count down goes ,
The first and the last sun mingle ,
Single she was ,and again would be single .
