Objection, evasion, joyous distrust, and love of irony are signs of health; everything absolute belongs to pathology.

Lancaster angel, East Sheen Cemetery, Jeane Trend-Hill

Forget what you learned in the night
The youth do not have it right
The wine plays tricks on young mortals
In the late moonlight
When reason was lost
And caveman instincts run wild
And I think I want to rest awhile
But the youth will not rest
And the youth will scream you awake
And the youth will give you drugs
And the youth will fill you with worth
And the youth will leave you be
Only when the youth has burned you up
My body is on fire
And the youth dance in my light
The youth came last night
Like all nights, and they begged to dance in my light
I begged to dance in their light
