There is no death. the stars go down to rise upon some other shore. And bright in Heaven's jeweled crown, they shine for ever more. John Mccreery ASHES Vasco Popa Some are nights the others ashes Each night sets fire to its own star And dances a black dance around it Until the star burns out Then the nights divide themselves Some become stars Other remain nights Again each night sets fire to its own star And dances a black dance around it Until the star burns out The last night both star and night It sets fire to itself And dances the black dance around itself Crow's First Lesson Ted Hughes God tried to teach Crow how to talk. "Love" said God. "Say, Love" Crow gaped, and the white shark crashed into the sea And went rolling downwards, discovering its own depth. "No,no," said God, "Say Love.Now try it. LOVE." Crow gaped, and a bluefly, a tsetse, a mosquito Zoomed out and down To their sundry flesh-pots. "A final try," said God. "Now,*LOVE*." Crow convulsed, gaped, retched and Man's bodiless prodigious head Bulbed out onto the earth, with swivelling eyes, Jabbering protest -- And Crow retched again, before God could stop him. And woman's vulva dropped over man's neck and tightened. The two struggled together on the grass. God struggled to part them, cursed, wept -- Crow flew guiltily off.
