Approach to Truth (verse)
Ritter, Margaret Tod
Approach to Truth Now we are snared between the dawn and dusk, And now again between the dusk and dawn. Memory is the slit and silver husk Shaping the day after the day is gone. Nothing is static,...
...All that we cherish is impermanent, All that we are is variable...
...We pass From birth to death, hurried and impotent, Probing the crystal with a blade of grass...
...Margaret Tod Ritter...
...we have not found Impervious adamant, or frozen flame, Or flesh unanimated by a wound...
...Nothing is static, nothing is the same, Medusa is a dream...
