Sagacious words
Poetry is a deal of joy and pain and wonder, with a dash of the dictionary. ~ Khalil Gibran

An Imperial Elegy
Not one corner of a foreign field
But a span as wide as Europe;
An appearance of a titan's grave,
And the length thereof a thousand miles,
It crossed all Europe like a mystic road,
Or as the Spirits' Pathway lieth on the night.
And I heard a voice crying
This is the Path of Glory.
~ Wilfred Owen
