"Let go the lure The striving to unmake; Behold the truth Whenever heart may ache There is a glory In a great mistake."

I have known exile and a wild passion Of longing changing to a cold ache. King, beggar and fool , I have been all by turns, Knowing the body's sweetness, the mind 's treason ; Taliesin still, I show you a new world , risen, Stubborn with beauty , out of the heart 's need .
