Absalom And Achitophel

...c was, nor proud:
His long chin prov'd his wit; his saint-like grace
A church vermilion, and a Moses' face.
His memory, miraculously great,
Could plots exceeding man's belief, repeat;
Which therefore cannot be accounted lies,
For human wit could never such devise.
Some future truths are mingled in his book;
But, where the witness fail'd, the Prophet spoke:
Some things like visionary flights appear;
The spirit caught him up, the Lord knows where:
And gave him his rabbinical de...Read more of this...

Colophon

...TO LAYLAH EIGHT-AND-TWENTY

Lamp of living loveliness,
Maid miraculously male,
Rapture of thine own excess
Blushing through the velvet veil
Where the olive cheeks aglow
Shadow-soften into snow,
Breasts like Bacchanals afloat
Under the proudly phallic throat!
Be thou to my pilgrimage
Light, and laughter sweet and sage,
Till the darkling day expire
Of my life in thy caress,
Thou my frenzy and my fire,
Lamp of living lo...Read more of this...

Conferring with myself

...Conferring with myself
My stranger disappeared
Though first upon a berry fat
Miraculously fared
How paltry looked my cares
My practise how absurd
Superfluous my whole career
Beside this travelling Bird...Read more of this...

My Cancer Cure

...
The groves with feathered rapture ring,
And bring me strange, sweet comforting. . . . 

Then all at once I knew that I
Miraculously would not die:
When doctors fail let Nature try....Read more of this...

Small Comfort

...the elm's green dome
O let the last bus bring

love to lover, let the starveling
dog turn the corner and lope suddenly
miraculously, down its own street, home....Read more of this...

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

...now White swooned.
She lay on the floor, a plucked daisy.
When the dwarfs came home they undid the lace
and she revived miraculously.
She was as full of life as soda pop.
Beware of your stepmother,
they said.
She will try once more.

Snow White, the dumb bunny,
opened the door
and she bit into a poison apple
and fell down for the final time.
When the dwarfs returned
they undid her bodice,
they looked for a comb,
but it did no good.
Though they washed her with wine
and rubbed ...Read more of this...

The Exposed Nest

...blackening heads of clovers.
'Twas a nest full of young birds on the ground
The cutter-bar had just gone champing over
(Miraculously without tasking flesh)
And left defenseless to the heat and light.
You wanted to restore them to their right
Of something interposed between their sight
And too much world at once--could means be found.
The way the nest-full every time we stirred
Stood up to us as to a mother-bird
Whose coming home has been too long deferred,
Made me ask would t...Read more of this...

The Garden

...fe, indeed! 
And there were all the lives of humankind;
And they were like a book that I could read, 
Whose every leaf, miraculously signed, 
Outrolled itself from Thought’s eternal seed. 
Love-rooted in God’s garden of the mind....Read more of this...

The Miraculous Escape of Robert Allan the Fireman

...in a building occupied by Messrs Smith & Brown, 
But the roof was fired, and amongst them it came crashing down. 

And miraculously they escaped except one fireman, 
The hero of the fire, named Robert Allan, 
Who was carried with the debris down to the street floor, 
And what he suffered must have been hard to endure. 

He travelled to the fire in Buchanan Street, 
On the first machine that was ordered, very fleet,
Along with Charles Smith and Dan. Ritchie, 
And proceeded to...Read more of this...
