what can i say? i love all forms of literature, especially poetry. sometimes against my will im forced to write, for the images and characters are like ghosts in my head. they have to speak for themselves or forever would they haunt my mind. like a caged bird they long to be free, and in turn i long to be free of them.
Here are some of my favourite poems:
.
Mutability
by Shelley
We are as clouds that veil the midnight moon;
How restlessly they speed, and gleam, and quiver,
Streaking the darkness radiantly! -yet soon
Night closes round, and they are lost for ever:
Or like forgotten lyres, whose dissonant strings
Give various response to each varying blast,
To whose frail frame no second motion brings
One mood or modulation like the last.
We rest.—A dream has power to poison sleep;
We rise.—One wandering thought pollutes the day;
We feel, conceive or reason, laugh or weep;
Embrace fond woe, or cast our cares away:
It is the same!—For, be it joy or sorrow,
The path of its departure still is free:
Man’s yesterday may ne’er be like his morrow;
Nought may endure but Mutablilty.
.
