Herman Melville - The Bench Of BoorsHerman Melville - The Bench Of Boors
Work rating: Low


In bed I muse on Tenier`s boors, Embrowned and beery losels all;       A wakeful brain       Elaborates pain: Within low doors the slugs of boors Laze and yawn and doze again. In dreams they doze, the drowsy boors, Their hazy hovel warm and small:       Thought`s ampler bound       But chill is found: Within low doors the basking boors Snugly hug the ember-mound. Sleepless, I see the slumberous boors Their blurred eyes blink, their eyelids fall:       Thought`s eager sight       Aches--overbright! Within low doors the boozy boors Cat-naps take in pipe-bowl light.
