    Thrown into despair
    By those great honey-coloured

    And not your yellow hair.””

    “Walk in this faithless grass with studious tread,
    Lest mice, weasels, germane beasts, too soon
    The tall hat and eyes, the fierce feet, for dead
    Descry, and fix you prone in their revelling moon.”
    —Allen Tate (1899–1979)
