A New Heaven

Seeing we in no way located gay fairyland  (although nonetheless we crouched by means of bluebells moon through moon)  And neglected the tide of Lethe; but are quickly  For that new bridge that leaves historical Styx half-spanned;  Nor ever unto Mecca caravanned;  Nor bugled Asgard, skilled in magic rune;  Nor yearned for some distance Nirvana, the candy swoon,  And from high Paradise are cursed and banned;   -Let's die residence, ferry throughout the Channel! Thus  we could reside gods there. Death shall be no sev'rance.  Weary cathedrals gentle new shrines for us.  To us, difficult knees of boys shall suffering with rev'rence.  usually are not girls' breasts a clear, powerful Acropole?  -There our oun mothers' tears shall heal us entire.
