Vigilia

Drom,

Wow!

Some of your allusions I did not understand, but the message was beautifully clear, more's the pity.

Thanks, Letty; that's the first positive feedback that I have received for this poem; I am really glad that you liked it. The other person whom I showed it to said that the name Vigilia reminded her of thrush cream, which makes the line 'O, make it stop! If you have hearts or souls' sound ludicrous. It doesn't allude to 'real' mythology, which might be a little weird, making it all up myself, but I thought that I should try to tell the idea.
