"SHROUD
That which you wove out of light thread
I wear in honor of stone.
When in the dark I awaken
the screams, it blows on them, lightly.
Often, when I should stammer,
it raises forgotten crinkles
and he that I am forgives
him that I was.
But the god of the slagheaps
beats his most muted drum,
and just as the crinkle ran
the grim one puckers his brow,"
