Cease Waters Flow

When days flow river-wise to the sea,
And noisy seagulls criss-cross a greying sky,
When one's psychic monsters disturb the peace,
And the Leviathan rises in starry moon:
I long for the times hereafter,
And respite from this wearisomeness;
And I long for sleep,
When a bell will toll my final release.
