Nonsense from Bogotá
Now that barks dog, now that crows cock,
now that dawning sounds the high rings bell;
and the brays burro and the warbles bird,
and the whistles watchmen and the grunts swine,
and the dawny rose fields the broad gilds,
pearling liquids poury as I tear sheds
and colding with shiver though the burn souls,
I come to sigh my heaves window your beneaths.

Desiderata
Go placidly amid the noise and haste,
and remember what peace there may be in silence.
As far as possible, without surrender, be on good terms with all persons.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others,
even to the dull and ignorant; they too have their story.
Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are vexations to the spirit.
If you compare yourself with others, you may...
you shall above all things be glad and young
you shall above all things be glad and young.
For if you’re young,whatever life you wear
it will become you;and if you are glad
whatever’s living will yourself become.
Girlboys may nothing more than boygirls need:
i can entirely her only love
whose any mystery makes every man’s
flesh put space on;and his mind take off time
that you should ever think,may god forbid...
