My heart, being hungry, feeds on food
⁠The fat of heart despise.
Beauty where beauty never stood,
⁠And sweet where no sweet lies
I gather to my querulous need,
Having a growing heart to feed.

It may be, when my heart is dull,
⁠Having attained its girth,
I shall not find so beautiful
⁠The meagre shapes of earth,
Nor linger in the rain to mark
The smell of tansy through the dark.
