Title: I have longed to move away
Post by: nrshida on September 07, 2022, 03:40:45 PM
I have longed to move away
From the hissing of the spent lie
And the old terrors' continual cry
Growing more terrible as the day
Goes over the hill into the deep sea;
I have longed to move away
From the repetition of salutes,
For there are ghosts in the air
And ghostly echoes on paper,
And the thunder of calls and notes.

You couldn't wet your lips in a rain storm.  Think before you post.

Regretfully no, I have no gift for natural language. I'm dyslexic. It's Dylan Thomas. There are more verses...
