THE WALL, by ISIDOR SCHNEIDER First Line: Oh, stately though we walk Last Line: Immediate on the wall. Subject(s): Relationships; Walls | ||||||||
I Oh, stately though we walk our flippant shadows break on walls our dignities. II Nor are there walls so vast or squinted so convex as are our neighbors' eyes that build upon our sight. Then your all gentle grace and I who am not more gross statured than the rest dare never kiss but see our vast disfigures cast immediate on the wall. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE LIFE OF TOWNS: TOWN OF THE WRONG QUESTIONS by ANNE CARSON COMES WINTER, THE SEA HUNTING by NORMAN DUBIE ATMOSPHERE; INSCRIPTION FOR A GARDEN WALL by ROBERT FROST UP AGAINST IT by ELEANOR WILNER BARTLEBY AT THE WALL by JACK GILBERT WALLS by WILLIAM HERVEY ALLEN JR.
