The tree the tempest with a crash of wood
Throws down in front of us is not to bar
Our passage to our journey's end for good,
But just to ask us who we think we are....

Live and let live, believe and...

Live and let live, believe and let believe.
'Twas said the lesser gods were only traits
Of the one awful God. Just so the saints
Are God's white light refracted into colors.

Nature's never quite
Sure...

Nature's never quite
Sure she hasn't erred
In her vague design....

There would be more than ocean...

There would be more than ocean-water broken
Before God's last Put out the Light was spoken.

God turned to speak to me

God turned to speak to me
(Don't anybody laugh);
God found I wasn't there
At least not over half.

It was far in the sameness of the wood;
I was running with joy on the Demon's trail,
Though I knew what I hunted was no true god.

Bounds should be set
To ingenuity for being so cruel
In bringing change unheralded on the unready.

How are we to write
The Russian novel in America
As long as life goes so unterribly?

And of course there must be so...

And of course there must be something wrong
In wanting to silence any song.

The city is all right. To live...

The city is all right. To live in one
Is to be civilized, stay up and read
Or sing and dance all night and see sunrise
By waiting up instead of getting up.

But what would interest you ab...

But what would interest you about the brook,
It's always cold in summer, warm in winter.

The truth is the river flows i...

The truth is the river flows into the canyon
Of Ceasing-to-Question-What-Doesn't-Concern-Us,
As sooner or later we have to cease somewhere.

I own I never really warmed

I own I never really warmed
To the reformer or reformed.
And yet conversion has its place
Not halfway down the scale of grace.

The Moon for all her light and...

The Moon for all her light and grace
Has never learned to know her place.

I have remained resentful to t...

I have remained resentful to this day
When any but myself presumed to say
That there was anything I couldn't be.

New is a word for fools in tow...

New is a word for fools in towns who think
Style upon style in dress and thought at last
Must get somewhere.

Than smoke and mist who better...

Than smoke and mist who better could appraise
The kindred spirit of an inner haze?

What an exciting age it is we ...

What an exciting age it is we live in
With all this talk about the hope of youth
And nothing made of youth.

When I was young my teachers w...

When I was young my teachers were the old.
I gave up fire for form till I was cold.

But this we know, the obstacle...

But this we know, the obstacle that checked
And tripped the body, shot the spirit on
Further than target ever showed or shone.
