      From: HDYSHANDGDYDN@988888MEXPOCKFOUR.COB.KEW              Two blackened, naked, antic trees              Dancing, pagan, witch-like silhouettes              Stiller than a summer day with not the faintest breeze              Behind, an immense wash of blue and gold sets              And the winking distant frozen eye of Mars sees              This ship-in-a-bottle silent world die again              Two hundred million miles in my brain                            Yet beauty also lives in dark and humble byways              Quietly beyond the hideous civic orange glare              The noble poem of nature's own obsequies              The frozen leaves and crow's nests in masts now bare              In contrast to heaven's monumental dying lightships, our time is just a       whiz:              Bede's bird that flew through a hot and roiling box -              You, me, the berry rotten on the branch, and the prowling half-starved fox.                                                        Nick Garrett 05              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
