Midsummer, was it, when They died — Corn Whiskey

Midsummer, was it, when They died-1
A full, and perfect time-
The Summer closed upon itself
In Consummated Bloom-

The Corn, her furthest kernel filled 5
Before the coming Flail-
When These-leaned unto Perfectness-
Through Haze of Burial-
(F.822/J.962)
