What a bolt from the blue falling in the west, Building up the darkest gloom around the world, Fringed with thunder lightnings flaring curves abreast; Inside a nuclear weapon yet unhurled. Look at the mountains of fume muffling the sky, Spreading everywhere the quietus to make Of all the life on earth to shrivel and […]
My years waxed old and my shoulders began To sway like a sparrow hawk in the air That’s the natural destiny of man Who wears out in the waste of Time un’ware When youthful I ne’er thought of sen’lity But now being deprived of my Spring years Walking in the Fall I feel within me […]
Eight-and-forty years ago, at this place Not alone but with my age at that year, I wheeled back on Time and visioned the face Of Napoleon with two eyes and one tear. One Austerlitz, the other Waterloo, The true eyes of victory and defeat The hopes and dreams were and were not true, For the […]

Torrential waters collapsing swallow speed tunneled Out of the cave a stream gargling throat Falling braids haltering over mountain steep Tousled spattering bubbles on the lake Swaying breezily a waltz moving rounds Rejoicing to be debating to while away Leaning gracefully reeling swoon and pop To fall zillions of grains as if blown of sand […]
