Excerpt from Dust of Stars
Are we but hucksters of pity, Crying with death in our eyes? We who are deaf to evil, And boast that we criticise? So, we have made fulfilment, To have been good, and died! To be good is facile, and only The martyrs are crucified!
Some, that have stood in wonder, Shattered the dead soul's bars, Haw heard the tongueless choir Beyond the sleep of the stars.
They, that are humble in beauty, Sustained of immortal wine.
