Invincible

Though into a lost realm
Of melodic fastnesses,
My exiled hopes are barred,
I still have seen
The topless towers of Ilium
Rise glowing in your eyes,
And known the stir
Of ageless passions
That dying centuries
May not dim;
Mine, have been the gleaming heights
Of fair Parnassus,
And the lowest depth
Of the deepest sea;
And, though I walk
Misted in purple shadows,
Lost...alone...
Not Death,
Nor even Life itself
May rob me now.

Of ageless passions

Wonderful.
I haven't been able to buy your book yet, I am buying a house, but I will very soon. I love your work.


With the word, I am mighty, with the pen I am free..
