The Doubting Flight My armor buckles in and out From the blows of crippling doubt My lance is blunted from the wall That blinding mass of overall I cannot leap the chasm I’m Nor cut the bars of passing time I wilt each day a flowers bloom And melt like wax into the gloom The truth is like a rivers flow The rapids smash what ere I know And I am cast upon a beach To build once more a ship to breach This time I’ll sail the mornings hew And there become a drop of dew To touch the essence of the day And there to stay and make my way Into this mass of overall and There I’ll finally touch you all |

I think you probably touched all of us a very long time ago, Sir Poet. |
