Vol. 2. / 144.) Where Are The Gilded Glimpses?




Where are the gilded glimpses?
Where are the winged things that touch?
Where are the brushes made of daisies
That at a single stroke ---
Can paint the things of the upper stratosphere
Where Earth’s angels live?

Perhaps, it is that they have forgotten the way
So cluttered up with works --- the way
Is misted and unclear --- and no hears
The silver bells that there are in the world
To proclaim it --- to give it voice ---
To demonstrate the life therein

Truth is fallen in the streets ---
Love is seen --- from the wrong side ---
Everyone grasps for himself --- takes what he can
And with it worships the things that corrupt
The spirit within him that was once given him
To give, born in him to live, that in dying he live!
