And rich men grown to be poor again,

And many a darling wits grown dull
That tossed a bare heel when at school,
Now it has filled an old sock full....”

“Boys finding for the first time their loins filled with hearts
blood
Widowed farmers whose hands float under light covers to find
themselves
Arisen at sunrise”

With mildewed fancies till she came to me;
My world she made of laughter and tomorrow
A lonely sail that gemmed a wasted sea.”
