In the poem, I so admire her unusual imagery - "where the sun gutters from the sky, where the sea swings in like an iron gate", and "My darling, the wind falls in like stones from the whitehearted water". Very beautiful.

The first stanza made me smile a bit...letting the dead ride by themselves in the hearse, being tired of being brave. Very human emotion expressed. I do like the 'confessional' poets that write life as it is.
