Nightfall's Nest: Basement
God gave a loaf to every bird-
But just a crumb- to me-
I dare not eat it- tho' I starve-
My poignant luxury-
To own it- touch it-
Prove the feat- that made the pellet mine-
Too happy- for my sparrow's chance-
For ampler coveting
--emily dickinson, 791
Hakkai should probably stop overextending himself like that, but even though Sanzo will bitch later, he's not actually complaining.
