Events

•         I used to think 
  
•         The mind essential in the body, even 
  
•         As stood the body essential in the mind: 
  
•         Two inseparable things, by nature equal 
  
•         And similar, and in creation’s song 
  
•         Halving the total scale: it is not so. 
  
•         Unlike and cross like driftwood sticks they come 
  
•         Churned in the giddy trough: a chunk of pine, 
  
•         A slab of rosewood: mangled each on each 
  
•         With knocks and friction, or in deadly pain 
  
•         Sheathing each other’s splinters: till at last 
  
•         Without all stuff or shape they’re jetted up 
  
•         Where in the bluish moisture rot whate’er 
  
•         Was vomited in horror from the sea.
