Dark, swirling eddies:
Sorrow, rage, hate, all of these
I set on a shelf.

Open the windows,
Let the cold, waiting heart of
Outer Space have them.

When dark thoughts are fed
To the Hungry Thing that lurks:
See how it explodes!

And all will be cleansed
All will turn to sun and air
Taste them, live anew!
