from Salome
No wonder, shaggy saint, breast-deep in Jordan's
Reflected gliding gardens,
That you assumed their swift compulsions sacred;
Nor that, dreaming you drank, so cool the water,
Regeneration, of which the first taste maddens,
You let spill on the naked
Stranger a pure and tripled mitre;
Nor that later, brooding, on the sacrament
Of flowing streams, you went
Back where none flow, and went in a new dread
Of water's claspings, whose rapt robe, whose crown
Make beggar and prince alike magnificent.
A dry voice inside said,
"Life is a pool in which we drown."
Finally then, small wonder the small king,
Your captor, slavering
In a gold litter, bitten to the bone
By what shall be, pretended not to hear
His veiled wild daughter sinuous on a string
Of motives all her own
Summon the executioner.
– James Merrill (1959)
