by Robinson, Edwin Arlington
...in but once, 
And having won, to lose disastrously, 
And as it was to prove, interminably—
Or till an end of living may annul, 
If so it be, the nameless obligation 
That I have not the Christian revenue 
In me to pay. A man who has no gold, 
Or an equivalent, shall pay no gold
Until by chance or labor or contrivance 
He makes it his to pay; and he that has 
No kindlier commodity than hate, 
Glossed with a pity that belies itself 
In its negation and lacks alchemy
To fuse...Read more of this...

Over your impotence

and then the moment when the prize is lost, and the erotic tinglings...Read more of this...

...u, see ye keep that law 
More faithfully than these! 

‘Too hasty heads for ordering worlds, alas! 
Think not that I to annul the law have will’d; 
No jot, no tittle from the law shall pass, 
Till all hath been fulfill’d.’ 

So Christ said eighteen hundred years ago. 
And what then shall be said to those to-day, 
Who cry aloud to lay the old world low 
To clear the new world’s way? 

‘Religious fervours! ardour misapplied! 
Hence, hence,’ they cry, ’ye do but keep man...Read more of this...

...and ceased
And from the bronze west long retreat is blown,

Shall Life renew these bodies? Of a truth
All death will he annul, all tears assuage?
Or fill these void veins full again with youth
And wash with an immortal water age?

When I do ask white Age, he saith not so, --
"My head hangs weighed with snow."
And when I hearken to the Earth she saith
My fiery heart sinks aching. It is death.
Mine ancient scars shall not be glorified
Nor my titanic tears the seas b...Read more of this...
