Maybe, then again maybe not.

"It is a world for the spider, for dark webs woven in darkness." --Edith Sitwell [Pluto]

The Automynorcagrammatical Raven plus 2 corrections to Satire: Veritas.

"Cordelia's Song

The moon shines whitely; I shall take
My silk umbrella, lest the moon
Too warmly fall upon the lake
And cause my bridal flowers to swoon.

The sparrow's sorrow is in vain,
And so does he his bride forget.
I wed the long grass and the rain,
And seven sailors dripping wet.

And shall not you and shall not I
Keep tryst beside this silent stream,
Who thought that we should rather die
Than wed the peacock's amber dream?

The moon shines whitely, I shall take
My silk umbrella, lest the moon
Too coldly fall upon the lake
And chill my bridal flowers too soon."
