“Here in the centre stands the glass. Light
Is the lion that comes down to drink. There
And in that state, the glass is a pool.
Ruddy are his eyes and ruddy are his claws
When light comes down to wet his frothy jaws”

“In the county there are thirty-seven churches
and no butcher shop. This could be taken
as a matter of all form and no content.”
