"It comes about that the drifiting of these curtains Is full of long motions: as the poderous Deflations of distance: or as clouds Inseperable from their afternoons; Or the changing of light, the dropping Of the silence, wide sleep and solitude Of night, in which all motion Is beyond us, as the firmament, Up-rising and down-falling, bares The last largeness, bold to see.

The Curtains In The House Of The Metaphysician
"It comes about that the drifiting of these curtains Is full of long motions: as the poderous Deflations of distance: or as clouds Inseperable from their afternoons; Or the changing of light, the dropping Of the silence, wide sleep and solitude Of night, in which all motion Is beyond us, as the firmament, Up-rising and down-falling, bares The last largeness, bold to see.
Wallace Stevens
1879 - 1955/Male/American
