Miguel

Why beautiful now
Why when other hearts are broken
And none can bear to see you
Why slip in amongst the sulkers
A prince among paupers
Miguel, your husband home is drinking
Your heart absconded sinking
Why beautiful now
Why with unmeasured spirits pouring
Have you made a mask of beauty
Are you Hal of Wales amended
Will you betray us for noble ends
Or prithee, listen:
This shifting ache is the eternal verity of brief love
So prithee, listen.
