THE WOUND, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: I climbed to the crest
Last Line: That it pierced me through.


I CLIMBED to the crest,
And, fog-festooned,
The sun lay west
Like a crimson wound:

Like that wound of mine
Of which none knew,
For I'd given no sign
That it pierced me through.
