Advantage is to which can tempt, Or never question, or can blow the reed and charm. Facing the Gorgon’s glance, discouraging to know, So late among the signs, the universal mix Of myth, that any mongoose has it easier. The ruse of Perseus, the mirror, was, at last, An act of cowardice. Stone would, for all he knew, Have been the more informative experience, And possibly the more erotic. Andromeda Chained on a rock is any bondage fantasy. It was our Mother Eve and Rikki-Tikki-Tavi Who resolutely looked upon the Ding an sich And lived to tell the tale, although made famous each By someone else’s telling. We who wet the reed, Brave understudies of the serpent’s subtleties, Invent of combinations ours and stars not used New birth, new beasts, a horoscope of selves left out. Vast Reptile of the Garden all about, false tongue Of knowledge flawed, draw in your venom and submit. No constellation is more clear than the one we name, No antitoxin strong as one that we believe. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Not that the grass is elsewhere greener, But that both it and ours grow meaner. The hay made while the sun shines sours; One can improve his shining hours, Not lengthen. Does to have and flaunt not Mock the poor man’s waste not, want not, Or does it parallel it? Greed As demonstration of the need, Unanswerable and unafforded, To hoard what cannot now be hoarded: The decades wasting of themselves. A cliff erodes; an ice floe shelves; Our future is a sum that dwindles, Memory bank a bank that swindles. One way or other, time subtracts.

Nothing but second childhood can explain Ford's Ship of Peace, or Wilson's trek by train Toward apoplexy. Activists who tout Their diets are the inner child come out. The medieval counterparts en route To Palestine first were the captured loot Of Turkish pirates, and thereafter slaves. And can we say a Jolly Roger waves Today above the waiting chains of cults, Street gangs, addiction, to the end results Of which the adolescent odalisque And neutered harem guardian might speak. "Jerusalem was freed, but not by us. Mantras do not accomplish; fighting does." Assassin is derived from hashish; blame The victim, not the drug and not the name.

And is there any other kind? The fruits of Eden, we know, now, are largely rind, And knowledge less a tree than some intrusive graft That does not take. To know is not so much a craft As it is exercise in self-deception: Eve Or Adam, we embrace the Garden that we leave, Attracted by the warnings put there to deter. Deep down, it is the challenges that we prefer. Hunting has more appeal than naming, and the name Of any beast outside the gate is simply game. From food to sport to murder is a seamless scale, But if we break it we return to worm and snail And that nude pair so bored they took up with a snake. Cain’s sons are gladiators; Abel’s wield a rake. If Eve has daughters have they taken to the street From down the garden path? Had they a choice? Who eat The fruit the pits will sicken.
