in the street of the sky night walks scattering poems
our can'ts were born to happen our mosts have died in more
-tomorrow is our permanent address and there they’ll scarcely find us(if they do, we’ll move away still further:into now
all by all and deep by deep and more by more they dream their sleep noone and anyone earth by april wish by spirit and if by yes
All in green went my love of riding on a great horse of gold into the silver dawn.
there's time for laughing and there's time for crying— for hoping for despair for peace for longing —a time for growing and a time for dying: a night for silence and a day for singing but more than all(as all your more than eyes tell me)there is a time for timelessness
A world of made is not a world of born
for whenever men are right they are not young
mr youse needn't be so spry concernin questions arty each has his tastes but as for i i likes a certain party gimme the he-man's solid bliss for youse ideas i'll match youse a pretty girl who naked is is worth a million statues
i have found what you are like the rain (Who feathers frightened fields with the superior dust-of-sleep. wields easily the pale club of the wind and swirled justly souls of flower strike the air in utterable coolness deeds of gren thrilling light with thinned newfragile yellows lurch and.press --in the woods which stutter and sing And the coolness of your smile is stirringofbirds between my arms;but i should rather than anything have(almost when hugeness will shut quietly)almost, your kiss
things which in my mind blossom will stumble beneath a clumsiest disguise appear capable of fragility and indecision
guilt is the cause of more marauders than history's most obscene disauders
