“Old men who never cheated, never doubted,
Communicated monthly, sit and stare
At the new suburb stretched beyond the run-way
Where a young man lands hatless from the air.”

“The stately Homes of England,
How beautiful they stand,
To prove the upper classes
Have still the upper hand.”

Who on a tilting deck sings
To keep mens courage up, though the wake hangs
That shall cut off their sun.”
