Things are looking up
according to Beckett.

How his perceptions
were deceived.

Stargazing is a thing of
the past since Sputnik.

But Orwell had a dream
on the island of Jura,

Circa 1948 when the
aurora borealis of his

Vision shone daylight on
pyramid's of the Proles,

With Annuit Coeptis at
its apex, looking down,

Where the peace of Yeats
"Came dropping slow".
Yeats had reservations about the symbolism
of the American $, saw it as a sinister emblem
