Dearest Sylvia:
The house is banal and desolate.
Without you it has relapsed into its
customary horror. I have even failed
to find any souvener of you; no hair
for a locket, no hair pins, you might
not have been here except for my
memory which has overwhelmed the
present ugliness. I keep remembering
you: once, smoothing my eye-brows, hiding under the bed clothes---( how
did you wake yourself so flat?)
walking round the abominable draw-
ing-room, the dot of blood on your ear.
I could go on for the length of this let-
ter: how can one might leave such an
elaborate impression? I so wish you
were still here. As I write I can hear
two clocks ticking: one goes urgently at
great speed while the other, the grand-
father you reworked, is louder & stately.
I feel as if Edgar Allen Poe's raven will
arrive soon. I feel very lonely in your
absence. All I can do is write poems for
you. Auden said once that the best love
poetry was written to ideal figures but
I no longer agree with this. You are both
