The raging waves of the mind
\nTore her spirit asunder
\nYet still she wrote
\nThose word we read… with wonder
\nAs words formed by worms of thought
\nIn a brain ragged from emotion
\nThe reader richer from the storms
\nOf that cerebral ocean
\nLets hope it never is to be
\nThough creative that madness divine
\nIll let the talent be hers
\nIf sanity is left to be mine…<\/p>\n
