Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice.
1397

It sounded as if the Streets were running
And then—the Streets stood still—
Eclipse—was all we could see at the Window
And Awe—was all we could feel.

By and by—the boldest stole out of his Covert
To see if Time was there—
Nature was in an Opal Apron,
Mixing fresher Air.

Day breaks and our eyes close on the sun

Twelve strings from the clock, and it is done

Next comes the sea, it’s turning grey

And with the other one, fades away—



Your mind is a three pound universe

Two steps and the third one will come first

It looks like the others got it wrong;

Our world has been here all along.
