GHOSTS by ROBERT SEYMOUR BRIDGES

Poet Analysis

First Line: MAZING AROUND MY MIND LIKE MOTHS AT A SHADED CANDLE
Last Line: WHEN TO THE WALL I NAIL'D YOUR RETICENT EFFIGYS?
Subject(s): GHOSTS; SUPERNATURAL;

Mazing around my mind like moths at a shaded candle
In my heart like lost bats in a cave fluttering.
Mock ye the charm whereby I thought reverently to lay you,
When to the wall I nail'd your reticent effigys?
