"susanna" poems
I. While raging tempests shake the shore, While Ælus’ thunders round us roar, And sweep impetuous o’er the plain Be still, O tyrant of the main; Nor let thy brow contracted frowns betray, While my Susanna skims the wat’ry way. II. The Pow’r propitious hears the lay, The blue-ey’d daughters of the sea With sweeter cadence glide along, And Thames responsive joins the song. Pleas’d with their notes Sol sheds benign his ray, And double radiance decks the face of day. III. To court thee to Britannia’s arms Serene the climes and mild the sky, Her region boasts unnumber’d charms, Thy welcome smiles in ev’ry eye. Thy promise, Neptune keep, record my pray’r, Not give my wishes to the empty air.

Ode To Neptune
De time is nebber dreary if de darkey nebber groans; De ladies nebber weary wid de rattle of de bones: Den come again Susanna by de gaslight ob de moon; We'll tum de old Piano when de banjo's out ob tune. Chorus: Ring, ring de banjo! I like dat good old song, Come again my true lub, Oh! wha you been so long?

Ring Ring The Banjo
I Just as my fingers on these keys Make music, so the self-same sounds On my spirit make a music, too. Music is feeling, then, not sound; And thus it is that what I feel, Here in this room, desiring you, Thinking of your blue-shadowed silk, Is music. It is like the strain Waked in the elders by Susanna; Of a green evening, clear and warm, She bathed in her still garden, while The red-eyed elders, watching, felt The basses of their beings throb In witching chords, and their thin blood Pulse pizzicati of Hosanna. II In the green water, clear and warm, Susanna lay. She searched The touch of springs, And found Concealed imaginings. She sighed, For so much melody. Upon the bank, she stood In the cool Of spent emotions. She felt, among the leaves, The dew Of old devotions. She walked upon the grass, Still quavering. The winds were like her maids, On timid feet, Fetching her woven scarves, Yet wavering. A breath upon her hand Muted the night. She turned-- A cymbal crashed, Amid roaring horns. III Soon, with a noise like tambourines, Came her attendant Byzantines. They wondered why Susanna cried Against the elders by her side; And as they whispered, the refrain Was like a willow swept by rain. Anon, their lamps' uplifted flame Revealed Susanna and her shame. And then, the simpering Byzantines Fled, with a noise like tambourines. IV Beauty is momentary in the mind-- The fitful tracing of a portal; But in the flesh it is immortal. The body dies; the body's beauty lives. So evenings die, in their green going, A wave, interminably flowing. So gardens die, their meek breath scenting The cowl of winter, done repenting. So maidens die, to the auroral Celebration of a maiden's choral. Susanna's music touched the ***** strings Of those white elders; but, escaping, Left only Death's ironic scraping. Now, in its immortality, it plays On the clear viol of her memory, And makes a constant sacrament of praise.

Oh! Susanna
With wings like barn doors, perched upon the tower and scathing The king fell, the Earth moved and let him drift slowly to death Bukowski on the bedpost sang rosy melodies through tin can headphones and the daffodils of a thousand fields wilted at the news of her death Needles fall from the junky's arms, a rain drop escapes Coca-Cola bottles strewn on a green carpet, smooth under foot and the festival casualties drift aimlessly to their scorching cars Pills fall from pockets as a forlorn criminal collects coins The clouds disperse from the estate, reggae disrupts cats making love Bass that resonates, crumbling cars and the warring between neighbours Lay with her as the coffin descends, gun crime statistics Spinoza makes accusations from beyond, ethical misappropriation Stop talking, for your voice could make an angel weep but the children still scream, running, frenzied on the lava streets Cracking bull whips at the backs of a slave, ********** passion, weeping and the sun sets in the East, proverbial middle finger to the populace Franzen now teaches me how to live such a lonesome life While the night holds me like a mother once would Until I pass, and the arms of Susanna Blamire beckon Hold me close I'm scared

I Dreamt I Wrote Something Special (This Is Not It)
I. Adieu, New-England’s smiling meads, Adieu, the flow’ry plain: I leave thine op’ning charms, O spring, And tempt the roaring main. II. In vain for me the flow’rets rise, And boast their gaudy pride, While here beneath the northern skies I mourn for health deny’d. III. Celestial maid of rosy hue, O let me feel thy reign! I languish till thy face I view, Thy vanish’d joys regain. IV. Susanna mourns, nor can I bear To see the crystal show’r, Or mark the tender falling tear At sad departure’s hour; V. Not unregarding can I see Her soul with grief opprest: But let no sighs, no groans for me, Steal from her pensive breast. VI. In vain the feather’d warblers sing, In vain the garden blooms, And on the ***** of the spring Breathes out her sweet perfumes. VII. While for Britannia’s distant shore We sweep the liquid plain, And with astonish’d eyes explore The wide-extended main. VIII. Lo! Health appears! celestial dame! Complacent and serene, With Hebe’s mantle o’er her Frame, With soul-delighting mein. IX. To mark the vale where London lies With misty vapours crown’d, Which cloud Aurora’s thousand dyes, And veil her charms around. X. Why, Phoebus, moves thy car so slow? So slow thy rising ray? Give us the famous town to view, Thou glorious king of day! XI. For thee, Britannia, I resign New-England’s smiling fields; To view again her charms divine, What joy the prospect yields! XII. But thou! Temptation hence away, With all thy fatal train, Nor once ****** my soul away, By thine enchanting strain. XIII. Thrice happy they, whose heav’nly shield Secures their souls from harms, And fell Temptation on the field Of all its pow’r disarms!

Shakespeare's marriage; Shakespeare's bed
I can not forget the very first time i set eyes on you. My heart was in a whirl as you mov'd closer to me. Enchant'd may i have been, yet modest and true. If i, wanton and impolite as i be, should have a fancy for 'ee, I could have for my own eyes caused such a great pleasure. For you were such a fair sight to the modest eyes. Nay one man's eyes missed 'ee as swaggered. J'ining the crowds, proud o' yourself med 'ee have been. I miss those fair days, ol' Marygreen, by the weather spoiled were we. 'Twas i to seek 'ee, my being heart-tender, hurt to hope. I oughtn't to hope for God's grace as you whisper'd my name, Yet 'twas only what had troubled me. My dear Sue, thine anger upon me was wanton. As swiftly raged at me, unto me being surpris'd. I love thee, may not i unto God be made a saint. Had i determined my course of action. I could have been tolerable unto thine eyes. My heart to pledge as of yore, yet torn and misled upon your path. Alas! Don't 'ee charm-veiled come to conquer my heart as to setting about planning another journey not to be done. Before God, and angels, though cast into agony, 'twas me unto whom you came when dark. My Sue.... My dearest Sue....

Susanna
The eloquence of the broken is Incredibly eloquent; Hard men Do cry when the truth is spoken Time is once we were young; now We are young still;  that is why we Cry.  Then and now are One but are Broken into past and present and our Heart in two; our soul is given words That pulse from our wounds like blood For Barbara remembering you on one starry night; and ||PBS story about young people  going to Casa Susanna
