“We wander on the earth, or err from bed to bed in search of home, and fail, and weep for the lost ages Before Because became As If, or rigid Certainty The Chances Are. The base hear us, and the violent Who long to calm our guilt with murder, and already Have not been slow to turn our wish to their advantage.”
