A Hallucination (Final Text + Audio)

(Painting: Kenneth Lawson, Moon and Sea, 1942)

Was it madness when I, at midnight by the dead river
Among the dying daffodils, had set
Eyes on the misty full moon through the skinned
Dead fingers of elms revivified by the wind
And saw there in its place 
With an unholy shiver
A woman’s panicked face
White, and bathed in sweat?
