TO_ for SATB a cappella chorus

DURATION
3 minutes

PREMIRED BY
Parallel Motion, New York, New York.

TO_ - Edgar Allen Poe
I heed not that my earthly lot,
Hath, little of earth in it.
That years of love have been forgot
In the hatred of a minute:
I mourn not that the desolate
Are happier, sweet than I,
But that you sorrow for my fate
Who am a passerby.
