To see a world in a grain of sand

To see a world in a grain of sand
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
and eternity in an hour.

William Blake

    ich bin ein englander
    so i will speak english :)

    your face stopped me dead.
    you enjoy archery.
    you quote Blake.

    and what a poem that is.
    i write things like that.
    but i don't enjoy poetry.
    strange that.
    here's one of mine:

    i am a fool
    how could i be
    what i am not
    yes this is me

    trickster clown
    of great renown
    seer of secrets
    clothed in down

    crooked beak with
    sharp clawed feet
    two beating wings
    the fool complete

    to loudly caw
    the sacred law
    forever less
    forever more
