SHAPES AND SIGNS, by JAMES CLARENCE MANGAN Poet's Biography First Line: I see black dragons mount the sky | |||
I see black dragons mount the sky , I see earth yawn beneath my feet- I feel within the asp, the worm That will not sleep and cannot die, Fair though may show the winding sheet! I hear all night, as through a storm, Hoarse voices calling, calling My name upon the wind- All omens, monstrous and appalling, Affright my guilty mind. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest... |
