"Charlotte at the Kings Staircase"
The princess will fall into the arms of the beloved.
She will be happy,
for a while.
On her wedding day there will be angels passing,
gods pronouncing
sages advising,
and crowds strewing the roads with roses
red as desire.
But the shadowy form has always been behind her.
She was running towards love
and dancing with death
all her life.
She will be happy,
for a while.
