richard pearson thomas - there's a certain slant of light lyrics

Loading...

there’s a certain slant of light
on winter afternoons
that oppresses, like the weight
of cathedral tunes

heavenly hurt it gives us;
we can find no scar
but internal difference
where the meanings are

none may teach it anything
‘t is the seal, despair, –
an imperial affliction
sent us of the air

when it comes, the landscape listens
shadows hold their breath;
when it goes, ‘t is like the distance
on the look of death

- richard pearson thomas
