As through an Alpine village passed
A youth, who bore, mid snow and ice,
A banner with the strange device,
Excelsior!”

The undying cry of the void falling living beginning to be something
That no one has ever been and lived through screaming without enough air”

And talk of the old countrymud and boards,
Poverty,
The snow falling down and necks of lovers.”
