Reconstruct the poem by dragging each line into its correct position. You can also use the up (↑) and down (↓) arrows to move a line one place at a time, or the top (⇑) and bottom (⇓) arrows to move a line directly to the top or bottom. Your goal is to reassemble the original poem as accurately as possible. As you move the lines, you'll see whether your arrangement is correct, helping you explore the poem's flow and meaning. You can also print out the jumbled poem to cut up and reassemble in the classroom. Either way, take your time, enjoy the process, and discover how the poet's words come together to create something truly beautiful.

Which grieving will not sweeten.
Pour the unhappiness out
Leaves you
Its black blooms rise.
The imagination, the one reality
And you are pierced by a death.
From your too bitter heart,
In this imagined world
It is in the water of tears
The magnificent cause of being,
With him for whom no phantasy moves,
Poison grows in this dark.
