The Ark is at Axum, brought there By partisans of Sheba. Blind-Although not stricken blind; just old-That guardian cannot describe The tablets, or, indeed, be sure If they are there. The guarded church (No, not a tabernacle), chaste And square, is carved of living rock. A Coptic mockery of Jews, Its dust and distance, negritude, Do not attract the Blood Savoy As did the Turin Shroud. Upkeep, However, Addis Ababa (Which did attract the Royal House) From time to time contributes to. Dividing sea forever closed And pharaonic threat dispersed, The pillars twain, the cloud by day, The fire by night, go on no more, Think not that from this wilderness An Ark or people can be led. Defining texts, on stone, on gold, As Judah’s place is by the Lion, Wherever honored, have their site. Once who is guardian is gone, The lightnings and the vengeance mute, Bright seraphim untrumpeted, Commandments unrevealed by Braille And crystal lenses nowhere kept, If we draw near the vessel lost How can we sense that we profane?

Hate Of vassals for the overlords, of priest for priest, The Corn God for the Sun God, province for the Crown.

If Maximilian had kept in place his rule There might be slaves in chains, but fewer murals.

The snowball is fully realized.; the soot removes it instantly from Robert Frost country. I can never keep it straight which is Bierstadt and which is Thomas Moran, although I like both. A couple of Bierstadts-or Morans--are in the Timkin Museum in San Diego. The landscape is Yosemite, in a golden light I never saw there, but tourist posters must be allowed license. In the poem “purple marbled meat” is so startling it should perhaps come toward the end, so as not to make what follows anti-climactic. In what sense ‘fare’ in cloud-fare? Croquet and Oakland Cemetery seem to me so much of the same period I would make more of the game and less of the other details. Wickets as “little headstones of air” is wonderful, although perhaps too ingenious for most readers. In Noah’s flood I would replace or omit the fencepost, as too un-Middle Eastern. If you are going to include a parrot I think you should also include the dove. One might work up and interesting contrast. This afternoon I am off to see the new Bruce Willis movie, “Sin City”, said to be based on a graphic novel, I.e. comic book, produced, I.e. the comic book, as a tribute to film noir.

Will it be Unrecognizable, as we ourselves may be, Or so unchanged as to embarrass by its stance: Its careful unawareness that a Feast of Fools Has just concluded overseas. To reassure, Parades are calendared as they have always been. On Monday night is Momus, noon on Tuesday Rex, And in the evening, champagne saucer in his hand Instead of scepter, Comus. In a sleet of beads, Infrequent hail of favors (none too new; one notes “Made in Japan”) in parsimonious largesse The floats press on, cell phones and crowd control unknown. Most uniforms one sees, however, are, like ours, Not costumes. Navy whites are Argentines in port. In chilly March as out of place as halter tops, Not that they do not make the statement they intend. Before the Boston Club’s festooned reviewing stand The Lord of Carnival Misrule will toast his Queen, And his parade push forward, pressuring the crowd Into the bars and restaurants. “It’s hopeless, Men,” Our leader says. “We’ll never find a table free.“ “Let’s go across the River,” someone says, “Algiers Is bound to be less crowded.” So, wise veterans Of harbor cities, well aware another side Is always there, a parallel reality, We take the empty outbound ferry. We return Too late for Comus, having learned Algiers gears up For Lent in its own way, as we for entering Civilian life, the grim costume, the utter drag, The forty days of 8 to 5 that never end. So many decades on, my channel surfing done, Sometimes, at midnight on Fat Tuesday, when the Courts Of Rex and Comus meet at Comus Ball--TV Is barred--I turn the TV off and think of Time As sceptered, saucered god upon a float. A float Papier-mache, but fully Juggernaut enough To grind down all who hope for favors, leap for beads. Momus who mocks us, Rex who rules, and Comus, quick To toast who wait the ferry with his empty cup. The Pfc. who rhumbaed with the Argentine Before he punched him out died long ago of drink; The Corporal who ripped a passing halter off Re-upped and vanished in Korea. I survive, Rise early on Ash Wednesday, and do not repent. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
