The incoherent sorceries of men

Who dance before a monstrous Axe and Pen,

Waving the fetiches of words, and then

Censure the dance with pedestals of gauze

Cleverly imitating rock, and laws

Whose opaque sureness broods above their cause.

When irony will cease to be obscure

To men whose eyes resent the cloudy lure

That ends their tiny clarities, with pure

And forming mists of words, then men will climb
