Dylan Thomas - Sometimes The Sky`s Too BrightDylan Thomas - Sometimes The Sky`s Too Bright
Work rating: Medium


Sometimes the sky`s too bright, Or has too many clouds or birds, And far away`s too sharp a sun To nourish thinking of him. Why is my hand too blunt To cut in front of me My horrid images for me, Of over-fruitful smiles, The weightless touching of the lip I wish to know I cannot lift, but can, The creature with the angel`s face Who tells me hurt, And sees my body go Down into misery? No stopping. Put the smile Where tears have come to dry. The angel`s hurt is left; His telling burns. Sometimes a woman`s heart has salt, Or too much blood; I tear her breast, And see the blood is mine, Flowing from her, but mine, And then I think Perhaps the sky`s too bright; And watch my hand, But do not follow it, And feel the pain it gives, But do not ache.
