    That the Greeks brought to Troye town,

    Their ships, and rent their sails adown;

    Appeased the gods that them withstood.”

    “This side of the truth,
    You may not see, my son,
    King of your blue eyes
    In the blinding country of youth,
    That all is undone,
    Under the unminding skies....”
    —Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)

    Truth’s light at strange turns of the mind’s road,
    wrong turns that lead
    over the border into wonder....”
