Excerpt from A Magazine of Letters, Vol. 13
Time was when poets spun The precious burden of the brain into Cocoons of song wherein their souls might live; But now, like geometric spiders, nets They weave to catch the iridescent flies That buzz ephemeral opinions. This tale was told by one who neither spun Nor wove, but, like a bard-imago, passed His life extracting nectar from all blooms That blow upon the poison-weeds that mar The sunlit garden of experience.
Part I. - the screen. I knew a man some years ago, or, thought I knew him, rather; tagged him off as cold, Hard, formal, an avaricious man.
