Dylan Thomas - To-Day, This InsectDylan Thomas - To-Day, This Insect
Work rating: Low


To-day, this insect, and the world I breathe, Now that my symbols have outelbowed space, Time at the city spectacles, and half The dear, daft time I take to nudge the sentence, In trust and tale I have divided sense, Slapped down the guillotine, the blood-red double Of head and tail made witnesses to this Murder of Eden and green genesis. The insect certain is the plague of fables. This story`s monster has a serpent caul, Blind in the coil scrams round the blazing outline, Measures his own length on the garden wall And breaks his shell in the last shocked beginning; A crocodile before the chrysalis, Before the fall from love the flying heartbone, Winged like a sabbath ass this children`s piece Uncredited blows Jericho on Eden. The insect fable is the certain promise. Death: death of Hamlet and the nightmare madmen, An air-drawn windmill on a wooden horse, John`s beast, Job`s patience, and the fibs of vision, Greek in the Irish sea the ageless voice: `Adam I love, my madmen`s love is endless, No tell-tale lover has an end more certain, All legends` sweethearts on a tree of stories, My cross of tales behind the fabulous curtain.`
