|
<p>The blind Cyclops rose, wound clotted,
|
2020-06-24 07:10:07 +00:00
|
|
|
To the bleating of his rams–who called
|
2020-04-25 06:35:06 +00:00
|
|
|
To the cloth-dyer Aurora, day, day.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>He crawled in his cave, clutched Greeks;
|
2020-06-24 07:10:07 +00:00
|
|
|
Wine-pots splintered beneath his palms–
|
2020-04-25 06:35:06 +00:00
|
|
|
The blown-glass dark between Sicilian pines
|
|
|
|
|
Bleached, colored, and bubbled up toward blue.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>And his goats, greedy for sunlight
|
|
|
|
|
And the white Ausonian glare, bleated
|
2020-06-24 07:10:07 +00:00

And drooped their ticked ears while he counted–</p>
|
2020-04-25 06:35:06 +00:00
|
|
|
<p>He missed the ropes; his bleeding hands
|
|
|
|
|
Were two mauled despots stumbling under chains.
|
|
|
|
|
Dry wind salts his forehead, and his flock
|
|
|
|
|
Stamps down through the herd-paths, unburdened.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>So was that savage chastened. Yet here am I,
|
2020-06-24 07:10:07 +00:00
|
|
|
Who will ever be master of you–and while I sleep
|
2020-04-25 06:35:06 +00:00
|
|
|
You look at the olive log, but never free me</p>
