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.`
