Held in a lunar synthesis,

Disolve the floors of memory

And through the spaces of the dark
Midnight

As a madman shakes a dead geranium.

At
its birth it is a little caterpillar, quite black, and the size of an ant;
at the end of eight days it reaches the size of half an inch; it now
sleeps for four days, and on awakening is very hungry, and feeds thus
for five or six days, when a second change or
sickness
comes on, and
then a third and a fourth; by this time it has reached its full size ;
it now feeds most voraciously for five or six days more, after
which it refuses food, and becomes a transparent yellow colour,
and leaves traces of silk behind it.
