    “He holds the wire from this box of nerves
    Praising the moral error
    Of birth and death, the two sad knaves of thieves,
    And the hunger’s emperor;
    He pulls the chain, the cistern moves.”

    “Among a hundred windows shining
    dully in the vast side
    of greater-than-palace number such-and-such
    one burns
    these several years, each night
    as if the room within were aflame.”
    —Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
