So much barren regret, So many hours wasted! And now I watch, from the window, the rain, the wandering buses. "Their little cosmos is shaken" the air is alive with that fact. In their parts of the city they are played on by diverse forces. How do I know? Oh. I know well enough. For them there is something afoot. As for me; I had over-prepared the event - "Beauty is so rare a thing. So few drink of my fountain." . Ezra Pound - Villanelle.

Yet you ask on what account I write so many love lyrics And whence this soft book comes into my mouth. Neither Calliope or Apollo sung these things into my ear, My genius is no more than a girl. If she with ivory fingers drive a tune through the lyre, We look at the process. How easy the moving fingers; if hair is myssed on her forehead, If she goes in a gleam of Cos, in a slither of dyed stuff, There is a volume in the matter; if her eyelids sink into sleep, There are new jobs for the author; And if she plays with me with her shirt off, We shall construct many Iliads. . .

Ningún hombre comprende profundamente un libro hasta no haber visto y vivido, al menos, parte de lo que éste contiene
