“Were that enough, bone, blood, and sinew,
The twisted brain, the fair-formed loin,
Groping for matter under the dog’s plate,
Man should be cured of distemper.
For all there is to give I offer:
Crumbs, barn, and halter.”
—Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
“Crouching down where nothing stirs
In the silence of the furze,
Crouching down again to brood
In the sunny solitude.”
—James Kenneth Stephens (1882–1950)
