This evening I viewed what in a single glance
could summarise the entire lot of man:
it was in the sky, its dusk-spreading span
that loomed un-thanked -- a breath-taking romance!
In tender subtleties of light by chance
the hues wove a thunder for eyes to scan
that proved itself a providential plan
uplifting: sweeping steps of the soul's dance! --
Ignored, or serving as a backdrop to
preoccupation with a concrete theme:
some strategy of ideas, that to do,
gauging temporality in a scheme,
remarking on its workability:
creating of a new reality.
