COLERIDGE ON URINE

What a beautiful Thing
Urine is, 
in a Pot,
brown, yellow,
transpicuous, the Image,
diamond shaped
of the Candle in it,
especially, as
it now appeared,
I having emptied the Snuffers
into it & the Snuff
floating about, &
painting all-shaped Shadows
on the Bottom.

This is a found poem taken from The Notebooks of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Volume 1, 1794-1804, edited by Kathleen Coburn,  #1766.
