It fits like glove in hand,
this tempered distraction-
bright as the snow’s reflection
for sure it makes a hit.
Brooding flees like a homeless motley crew.
Overflowing like honey on the comb;
warming as the glow spreads
from the suburbs of the heart.
These are the delights of Madam Joy.

Some great images in this poem. 'Overflowing like honey on the comb; warming as the glow spreads from the suburbs of the heart.' is my favourite part.

Oh look, a link. I wonder where it leads.
