    “As a great buck it powerfully appeared,
    Pushing the crumpled water up ahead,
    And landed pouring like a waterfall,
    And stumbled through the rocks with horny tread,
    And forced the underbrush—and that was all.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “Not dancing but nearly risen
    Through barnlike, theatrelike houses
    On the winds of the buck and wing.”
