The Weary Place Rest with the owls in the hollows of trees Drowse with the worm and the frog in the lees Dream of the shrew with the shattered spine And the werewolf that toys with its visceral twine It is such a weary place The horned child sleeps beside the spring of illimitable light The moss has grown over her eyelids She sleeps because she has lost interest in the world Rest with the owls in the hollows of trees Drowse with the worm and the frog in the lees Dream of the shrew with the shattered spine And the werewolf that toys with its visceral twine It is such a weary place Slumber has stolen her memories She had grown tired of them anyway Let it all die away like a malarial child Nothing is worth the dissatisfaction of waking Rest with the owls in the hollows of trees Drowse with the worm and the frog in the lees Dream of the shrew with the shattered spine And the werewolf that toys with its visceral twine
