3166. LIFEFORCE

LIFEFORCE
I structured my horizontal frame.
I structured you. I structured, thus,
the world. You are, at long last, the
enchantment that brings me forth.
Now, so derived, this riverbank
flows as its water runs : Gently
Sweet Afton or Bard of Avon.
No, no, I wouldn't know, and
both my sleeves are dipped in
it, my cape arrives in tatters,
and I am - sorely now - bereft
of any allegiance at all. Yet, once
more, you are the enchantment
that brings me forth.
