Elizabeth Daryush Dark Poems
- 1. You Should At Times Go Out
You should at times go out
from where the faithful kneel,
visit the slums of doubt
and feel what the lost feel;
... - 2. After Bank Holiday
Now deserted are the roads
Where awhile the lovers went;
Vacant are the field-abodes
Where a vivid hour they spent:
... - 3. Unknown Warrior
Not that broad path chose he, which whoso wills
May tread, if he by pay the fatal price,
And for such sweet as earthly life extils,
Slaughter his heaven-born soul in sacrifice.
... - 4. Invalid Dawn
Above the grey down
Gather, wan, the glows;
Relieved by leaden
Gleams a star-gang goes;
...
