Was there an Arthur who looking up saw a slender woman with a voice of music? What a question! What a question! You are he. Did he have a sword Excalibor as steel-blue flame and sharper than the edges of a gale? Flame is thy blood, and keen thy mind. It cannot be. Galahad was his knight who saw the grail. Mercy to Patrick! So shall your soul when you die. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...BROKEN LINES by BENJAMIN ROSENBAUM CAPUT MORTUUM by BENJAMIN ROSENBAUM CASTILIAN BODY by BENJAMIN ROSENBAUM CLASSIC NIGHT by BENJAMIN ROSENBAUM DAY PIECE by BENJAMIN ROSENBAUM DEAN SWIFT by BENJAMIN ROSENBAUM DEATH IS... by BENJAMIN ROSENBAUM DEFINITIONS by BENJAMIN ROSENBAUM |
