The Craving
Like Twilight´s , too, her dusky hair…
To haunt to startle, and way-lay.
(William Wordsworth, She Was a Phantom of Delight)

Green Spleen
Here we go round the prickly pear
Prickly pear prickly pear
Here we go round the prickly pear
At five o´clock in the morning.
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper.
(Thomas Stearns Eliot: The Hollow Men)

Fair Warning
Listen. Grow mild before the flicking lash
Seems welded to your hand, self-wounder.
What are we, cry we, while our pain leaps lush,
Too jungle thick: the jungle where we wander,
No seeded faith before, nor after, miracle,
Of bidden faith in things unseen, no particle.
For we think only through our troubled selves,
We note the worm that in the apple delves,
See gibbous moons and spots upon the sun,
Speak gibberish, and keep the poor in sin.
(Gene Derwood, With God Conversing)
