An African Thunderstorm” From the west Clouds come hurrying with the wind Turning Sharply Here and there Like a plague of locusts Whirling Tossing up things on its tail Like a madman chasing nothing Pregnant clouds Ride stately on its back Gathering to perch on hills Like dark sinister wings The wind whistles by And tress bends to let it pass In the village Women Babies clinging on their backs Dart about In and out Madly The wing whistles by Whilst trees bend to let us pass Clothes were like tattered flags Flying off To expose dangling breasts As jagged blinding flashes Rumble, tremble, and crack Amidst the smell of fired smoke And the pelting march of the storm. |

To His Coy Mistress by Andrew Marvell Had we but world enough, and time, This coyness, Lady, were no crime. We would sit down and think which way To walk and pass our long love's day. Thou by the Indian Ganges' side Shouldst rubies find: I by the tide Of Humber would complain. I would Love you ten years before the Flood, And you should, if you please, refuse Till the conversion of the Jews. My vegetable love should grow Vaster than empires, and more slow; An hundred years should go to praise Thine eyes and on thy forehead gaze; Two hundred to adore each breast; But thirty thousand to the rest; An age at least to every part, And the last age should show your heart; For, Lady, you deserve this state, Nor would I love at lower rate. But at my back I always hear Time's winged chariot hurrying near; And yonder all before us lie Deserts of vast eternity. Thy beauty shall no more be found, Nor, in thy marble vault, shall sound My echoing song: then worms shall try That long preserved virginity, And your quaint honour turns to dust, And into ashes all my lust: The grave's a fine and private place, But none, I think, do there embrace. Now therefore, while the youthful hue Sits on thy skin like morning dew, And while thy willing soul transpires At every pore with instant fires, Now let us sport us while we may, And now, like amorous birds of prey, Rather at once our time devour Than languish in his slow-chapt power. Let us roll all our strength and all Our sweetness up into one ball, And tear our pleasures with rough strife Thorough the iron gates of life: Thus, though we cannot make our sun Stand still, yet we will make him run. |

To His Coy Mistress Summary "To His Coy Mistress" is divided into three stanzas or poetic paragraphs. It’s spoken by a nameless man, who doesn’t reveal any physical or biographical details about himself, to a nameless woman, who is also biography-less. During the first stanza, the speaker tells the mistress that if they had more time and space, her "coyness" (see our discussion on the word "coy" in "What’s Up With the Title?" wouldn’t be a "crime." He extends this discussion by describing how much he would compliment her and admire her, if only there was time. He would focus on "each part" of her body until he got to the heart (and "heart," here, is both a metaphor for sex, and a metaphor for love). In the second stanza he says, "BUT," we don’t have the time, we are about to die! He tells her that life is short, but death is forever. In a shocking moment, he warns her that, when she’s in the coffin, worms will try to take her "virginity" if she doesn’t have sex with him before they die. If she refuses to have sex with him, there will be repercussions for him, too. All his sexual desire will burn up, "ashes" for all time. In the third stanza he says, "NOW," I’ve told you what will happen when you die, so let’s have sex while we’re still young. Hey, look at those "birds of prey" mating. That’s how we should do it – but, before that, let’s have us a little wine and time (cheese is for sissies). Then, he wants to play a game – the turn ourselves into a "ball" game. (Hmmm.) He suggests, furthermore, that they release all their pent up frustrations into the sex act, and, in this way, be free. In the final couplet, he calms down a little. He says that having sex can’t make the "sun" stop moving. In Marvell’s time, the movement of the sun around the earth (we now believe the earth rotates around the sun) is thought to create time. Anyway, he says, we can’t make time stop, but we can change places with it. Whenever we have sex, we pursue time, instead of time pursuing us. This fellow has some confusing ideas about sex and time. Come to think of it, we probably do, too. "To His Coy Mistress" offers us a chance to explore some of those confusing thoughts. |

Bat By D. H. (David Herbert) Lawrence At evening, sitting on this terrace, When the sun from the west, beyond Pisa, beyond the mountains of Carrara Departs, and the world is taken by surprise... When the tired flower of Florence is in gloom beneath the glowing Brown hills surrounding... When under the arches of the Ponte Vecchio A green light enters against stream, flush from the west, Against the current of obscure Arno ... Look up, and you see things flying Between the day and the night; Swallows with spools of dark thread sewing the shadows together. A circle swoop, and a quick parabola under the bridge arches Where light pushes through; A sudden turning upon itself of a thing in the air. A dip to the water. And you think: "The swallows are flying so late!" Swallows? Dark air-life looping Yet missing the pure loop ... A twitch, a twitter, an elastic shudder in flight And serrated wings against the sky, Like a glove, a black glove thrown up at the light, And falling back. Never swallows! Bats! The swallows are gone. At a wavering instant the swallows gave way to bats By the Ponte Vecchio ... Changing guard. Bats, and an uneasy creeping in one's scalp As the bats swoop overhead! Flying madly. Pipistrello! Black piper on an infinitesimal pipe. Little lumps that fly in air and have voices indefinite, wildly vindictive; Wings like bits of umbrella. Bats! Creatures that hang themselves up like an old rag, to sleep; And disgustingly upside down. Hanging upside down like rows of disgusting old rags And grinning in their sleep. Bats! In China the bat is symbol for happiness. Not for me! |

Towards evening, the sun was setting beyond the mountains of Carrara and the world was surprised by the sudden departure of the sun and the sudden darkness. The city of Florence was in gloom though the brown hills around were glowing with the last sun rays. A green beam of sunlight came under the arches of the bridge of Ponte Vecchio from the west and the direction of the beam of light was against the current of the river Arno. At this point, should anyone look up from a terrace, one could see something flying between light and darkness as if these things were stitching the shadows together with spools of thread. The bats were flying from one patch of darkness to another through a lighted part. As the sun went down more, the shadows came closer to each other as if the bats were stitching them together. The bats were flying in a circle, and then they suddenly swooped to the river. They suddenly changed their orbits into a parabola and turned a somersault and dipped to the water. At first, the narrator mistook the bats for swallows, though he wondered as to why they were flying so late. Yet he could not be sure if they were swallows. The bats flew at times in a loop-like orbit though it was not a pure loop. They made a sudden movement of the body. They twittered and made the air shudder as it was. The bats looked like gloves thrown up at the light and falling back. The manner of flight only proved to the narrator that the flying things were not swallows. He could now realize that the swallows had gone away and the bats had come just like the change of guard. As soon as he realized that they were bats, he experienced a very uneasy sensation in his scalp. He felt that the bats were flying madly. He remembered how disgusting the bats looked when they sleep hanging upside down from branches of trees or inside caves. They grin as if they are smiling in mockery and contempt. He did not look upon them as anything good though they are regarded in China as a symbol of happiness. |

The Journey of the Magi By: TS ELLIOT "A cold coming we had of it, Just the worst time of the year For a journey, and such a long journey: The was deep and the weather sharp, The very dead of winter." And the camels galled, sore-footed, refractory, Lying down in the melting snow. There were times we regretted The summer palaces on slopes, the terraces, And the silken girls bringing sherbet. Then the camel men cursing and grumbling And running away, and wanting their liquor and women, And the night-fires gong out, and the lack of shelters, And the cities hostile and the towns unfriendly And the villages dirty, and charging high prices.: A hard time we had of it. At the end we preferred to travel all night, Sleeping in snatches, With the voices singing in our ears, saying That this was all folly. Then at dawn we came down to a temperate valley, Wet, below the snow line, smelling of vegetation; With a running stream and a water-mill beating the darkness, And three trees on the low sky, And an old white horse galloped away in the meadow. Then we came to a tavern with vine-leaves over the lintel, Six hands at an open door dicing for pieces of silver, And feet kicking the empty wine-skins. But there was no information, and so we continued And arrived at evening, not a moment too soon Finding the place; it was (you may say) satisfactory. All this was a long time ago, I remember, And I would do it again, but set down This set down This: were we lead all that way for Birth or Death? There was a Birth, certainly, We had evidence and no doubt. I have seen birth and death, But had thought they were different; this Birth was Hard and bitter agony for us, like Death, our death. We returned to our places, these Kingdoms, But no longer at ease here, in the old dispensation, With an alien people clutching their gods. I should be glad of another death. |

STRUGNELL'S SONNETS (VI) Let me not to the marriage of true swine Admit impediments. With his big car He's won your heart, and you have punctured mine. I have no spare; henceforth I'll bear the scar. Since women are not worth the booze you buy them I dedicate myself to Higher Things. If men deride and sneer, I shall defy them And soar above Tulse Hill on poet's wings -- A brother to the thrush in Brockwell Park, Whose song, though sometimes drowned by rock guitars, Outlives their din. One day I'll make my mark, Although I'm not from Ulster or from Mars, And when I'm published in some classy mag You'll rue the day you scarpered in his Jag. -- Wendy Cope FROM STRUGNELL’S SONNETS(IV) Not only marble, but the plastic toys From cornflake packets will outlive this rhyme I can't immortalize you, love - our joys Will lie unnoticed in the vault of time. When Mrs. Thatcher has been cast in bronze And her administration is a page In some O-Level text-book, when the dons Have analysed the story of our age, When travel firms sell tours of outer space When aeroplanes take off without a sound And Tulse Hill has become a trendy place And upper Norwood's on the underground Your beauty and my name will be forgotten - My love is true, but all my verse is rotten -- Wendy Cope SONNET Shakespeare Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on tempests and is never shaken; It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken. Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks Within his bending sickle's compass come: Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom. If this be error and upon me proved, (not yet complete) |

NAKED SOLES byADEOTI GBEmisola A carnival of naked soles dancing through blooming thorns hopping with muffled shrill on souls of thorns with glass chips with ageing faces in puzzling smiles drained of terror a passerby points attention to the horror locked in lisping lips and clanging teeth all dancing figures in a pool of spikes and in procession they turn into the forest of cactus a painful passage along a pin ful path hopping between pricks and tears amidst chants and retorts charming thunders of stripped soles roared through our new acropolis where pins and nails and shattered shells of snails pile from rooftop to floor at the close of the carnival we are left with regal strutting on bare soles and milk of bleakness we are left with royal bearing on thorn filled cushions and wild faces behind ageing masks from thrones of thorns. |

End of WAR- OKINBA LAUNKO They say, a war only ends, when another war begins: the silence of the battlefield heralds the widow's anguish for, to set questions is not as hard as finding answers...... Our war has ended because war is now with us the deserted houses, the fallen rafters breed the city's slums and the praise singers are not dead they have only gone to the barracks...... the butchers fill the parliaments...... and the victims no longer die by bullets but survive to pay the levies..... Listen-----they will tell you--- to beat drums is mere children's play the adult's is to start echoes...... |

Heritage of Liberation since it was you who in all these thin seasons Gave to our minds the visions of life Take these weapons for our children's children. They were ours. They broke the enemies' encirclements. So let our children live with our voices With all the plentifulness of our nightmares. Let them bury us in the mountain To remind them of our wanderings. The sunset steals our youth. We must depart. We must follow the trail of the killerbird Or else sleep the sleep of terror TO generations hereafter May they inherit our dream of the festival We who smelt the acrid smell of death Who saw the vultures leave our comrade's flesh We Bequeath to you the rays of the morning.... |
