he flew. The nation wanted peace. Our Perseus!
William Blake, William
Blake, William Blake, William Blake, say it and feel new!
Love without sex is
still the most efficient form of hell known to man.

is one who believes he has invented breathing.
The Creation had
to find room for the exper- imental novel.
When daffodils be-
gin to peer: watch out, para- noia's round the bend.
I get out of bed
and say goodbye to people I won't meet again.

about money who very soon will have to die.

my duty to be old hat so you can hate me.

and unattractive but so much nicer to know.
Somewhere at the heart
of the universe sounds the true mystic note: Me.
