The Sirens' Song (blind, silent, haunted)
"And a call, pure, long and throbbing. Longindying call.
Decoy. Soft word. But look: the bright stars fade.
Notes chirruping answer.
O rose! Castile. The morn is breaking.
Jingle jingle jaunted jingling.
Coin rang. Clock clacked.
Avowal. Sonnez. I could. Rebound of garter. Not leave thee. Smack. La cloche!
Thigh smack. Avowal. Warm.
Sweetheart, goodbye!
Jingle. Bloo.
Boomed crashing chords. When love absorbs. War!
War! The tympanum.
A sail! A veil awave upon the waves.
Lost. Throstle fluted. All is lost now."
