Lesson 17
The mermaids wave at meI do not watch
Beauty has its own misgivings
it’s toils, troubles,
and bad tidings
but that’s never beauty’s fault
is ours is ours
we lack the power
to gaze at beauty with our ill thoughts
The mermaids wave at me
I do not watch
for fear for fear
the world will know
whisk them away
and all my fault
