...light of genius deep in their dreamy eyes--- 

Not as of artists or poets with their vain imaginings, 

But born to be thinkers and doers, and makers of wonderful things. 



Born to be builders of vessels in the Harbours of Waste and Loss, 

That shall carry our goods to the nations, flying the Southern Cross; 

And fleets that shall guard our seaboard---while the 

East is backed by the Jews--- 

Under Australian captains, and manned by Australian crews.

...kness they go, the wise and the lovely. Crowned
With lilies and with laurel they go; but I am not resigned.

Lovers and thinkers, into the earth with you.
Be one with the dull, the indiscriminate dust.
A fragment of what you felt, of what you knew,
A formula, a phrase remains,—but the best is lost.

The answers quick and keen, the honest look, the laughter, the
 love,—
They are gone. They are gone to feed the roses. Elegant and curled
Is the blossom. Fragrant is the blossom. ...Read more of this...

...nly courage. Squashed 
out of old selves, smearing the darkness 
of expectation across experience, all of us little 
thinkers it brings home having similar thoughts 
of landing to the imponderable world, 
the transoceanic airliner, 
resting its huge weight down, comes in almost lightly, 
to where 
with sudden, tiny, white puffs and long, black, rubberish smears 
all its tires know the home ground....Read more of this...

...ans and the Dutch are the children of the Goths and Vandals who did a good in destruction books written by heathen Free-Thinkers against God. 

For there are Americans of the children of Toi. -- 

For the Laplanders are the children of Gomer. 

For the Phenomena of the Diving Bell are solved right in the schools. 

For NEW BREAD is the most wholesome -- God be gracious to Baker. 

For the English are the children of Joab, Captain of the host of Israel, who was the greatest ma...Read more of this...

Cities come early cities come lately
Cities strong and cities secret
Plundered of their master's builders
All their thinkers all their ghosts 

Fields pattern of emerald
Bright living surviving
The harvest of the sky over our earth
Feeds my voice I dream and weep
I laugh and dream among the flames
Among the clusters of the sun 

And over my body your body spreads
The sheet of it's bright mirror....Read more of this...

...ed 
That aims the best 
Were looking like the worst. 

Enkindled by my votive work 
No burnng faith I find; 
The deeper thinkers sneer and smirk, 
And give my toil no mind; 
From nod and wink 
I read they think 
That I am fool and blind. 

My gift to God seems futile, quite; 
The world moves as erstwhile; 
And powerful Wrong on feeble Right 
Tramples in olden style. 
My faith burns down,

"And shine sublime! 

"The world's enslaved and hunted down by beagles, 
To despots sold. 
Souls of deep thinkers, soar like mighty eagles! 
The Right uphold. 

"Be born! arise! o'er the earth and wild waves bounding, 
Peoples and suns! 
Let darkness vanish; tocsins be resounding, 
And flash, ye guns! 

"And you who love no pomps of fog or glamour, 
Who fear no shocks, 
Brave foam and lightning, hurricane and clamour,-- 
Exiles: the rocks!"...Read more of this...
