When the change came
she was floating in the millpond,
foam like white lace tracing her wake.
Wings collapsed like fans;
She would have cried for the pain of it
had not remembrance of sky sustained her....

#FaustianFriday Uriah Heep created by Charles Dickens in David Copperfield is a villain of the worst kind, a snivelling sycophantic creep, noted for his cloying “umbleness” & insincerity. Motivated by greed, he schemes & manipulates, to gain control of the Wickfield fortune.
Sweet, shut your eyes,
The wild fire-fiies
Dance through the fairy neem;
From the poppy-bole
For you I stole
A little lovely dream.
