A Certain Slant Of Light

	There's a certain Slant of light,
	Winter Afternoons –
	That oppresses, like the Heft
	Of Cathedral Tunes –
	Heavenly Hurt, it gives us –
	We can find no scar,
	But internal difference,
	Where the Meanings, are –
	None may teach it – Any –
	'Tis the Seal Despair –
	An imperial affliction
	Sent us of the air –
	When it comes, the Landscape listens –
	Shadows – hold their breath –
	When it goes, 'tis like the Distance
	On the look of Death –
