"THE DALE UPSTREAM (Palindrome by Pairs)
We save
long-lost mounts,
and I rain,
led again
in shades,
the river thus a dream….
Rest up.
Go upstream.
Read us the river,
the sad shining —
a dale, in radiant sun;
most long loves’ awe…."
--@Anthony_Etherin
"Flee it who will, · a well-earned fate
is not often altered, · for every earth-dweller
and soul-bearing son · must seek out a spot
to lay down his body, · lie on his death-bed,
sleep after feasting."
--Sullivan & Murphy's Beowulf
"I'd wager more people under 40 read poetry than read newspapers."
