The Wild Knight and Other Poems

My eyes are full of lonely mirth: Reeling with want and worn with scars, For pride of every stone on earth, I shake my spear at all the stars. A live bat beats my crest above, Lean foxes nose where I have trod, And on my naked face the love Which is the loneliness of God. Outlawed: since that great day gone by- When before prince and pope and queen I stood and spoke a blasphemy- 'Behold the summer leaves are green.' They cursed me: what was that to me Who in that summer darkness furled, With but an owl and snail to see, Had blessed and conquered all the world?
