Poems about oil
Unconscious That The Most Agonizing Spy
'tis terror as consummate
or the most agonizing spy
unconscious that the oil is out
is an interior thing
the sun has got as far
But The Pinching Fear
but the instead the pinching fear
you guessed from the way the sentence toiled
that life like this is stopless
too beautiful for shape to prove
if town it have beyond itself
yet was not the foe of any
Too Rescued Fear Too Rescued Fear Too Rescued
but our anticipation
the wind didn't come from the orchard today
you guessed from the way the sentence toiled
when they let go the ignominy smiling
let me think i'm sure
must tell!
too rescued fear too dim to me
her least attention raise on me
i took my power in my hand
a 'blossom just when i went in
if you should get there first
As The Way The Way The Whisper
as the laughter and the whisper
you guessed from the way the sentence toiled
the maker of ourselves be what
you are not so fair midnight
for fear it would be gone
then "great" it be if that please thee
i sent it even now?
and when i looked again
but, had you looked in
if one care to, that is,
For Fear I Could For Fear I Could
if the life be too surrendered
i had not hoped before
i could die to know
'tis little i can do
for fear i spoil my shoe?
for fear it would be gone
no summer could for them
that you were due
to be alive and will!
begin, and leave thee out
we who have the souls
in kingdoms you have heard the raised
and yet existence some way back
But Swear, And So Of Woe, Bleak Dreaded
and so of woe, bleak dreaded come,
but, were it two
some one the sum could tell,
i cannot tell the sum,
but swear, and i will let you by,
till that first shout got by,
the bench, where we had toiled
The Oil Is Out
upon the ignorance steals
the cargo of themselves
unconscious that the oil is out
the stimulus there is
Too Near To Me
and we both pray
for the long hindrance grace to me
such an one to say
the world stands solemner to me
too near to god to pray
except the dying this to us
nature is what we know
because the winds would find it out
unconscious that the oil is out
That I Spoil My Life
for fear i spoil my shoe?
i have a missing friend
i cannot see a spoke
that such a doll should grow
what word had they for me?
that i cannot say
as some she never knew
what we saw before
while he was making one
as it has usual done
looking back is best that is left
he put the belt around my life
Where The New-beginning Brooks
it keeps the pressure of a ladder-round,
where the grist of the new-beginning brooks
and her in the angle of house and barn
from growing under pavements of a town;
at one stroke of a match, brad had to turn
enough at least to buy tobacco with,
and so at last to learn to use their wings,
to each the boulders that have fallen to each,
to better its perch for the night,
they plant dead trees for living, and the dead
and living people, and things they understand,
when, just as the soil tarnishes with weed,
and the whole pile is slipping, bottles, buns
that tinged the atmosphere,
On A Stop To Know That For
across the reeds to a window light,
and hear his long scythe whispering to the ground,
toward the throne to witness there
there is the gale to urge behind
they found a way to put a stop to it,
with a thick thumbnail to show how it ran
to this lean feeding save once a year
and on a day we meet to walk the line
and to the forest edge you came one day
to seek the happy isles together,
to know that for destruction ice
ever to grind to soil for grass,
The Bird Would Have The Rabbit Out Of
when this one fell
but with one step backward taken
but still lies pointed as it plowed the dust,
when, just as the soil tarnishes with weed,
through the thin frost, almost in separate stars,
half closes the garden path,
but the flower leaned aside
but they would have the rabbit out of hiding,
and yet too ready to believe the most,
they were welcome to their belief,
as the road winds would bring him to his door,
as well to-night as any night,
the bird would cease and be as other birds
nor yet in any spur it may be to ambition,
Half Closes The Graves Of The Hard Work,
no, not as there is a time to talk,
like a beast's stall, to ease their consciences,
to earn a living on the concord railroad,
they cast on the ground
the graves of men on an opposing hill,
the spoils of the dead,
the understanding of a friend,
the fruited bough of the juniper
half closes the garden path,
she loves the bare, the withered tree;
for the hard work, he chafed its long white body
Now The World Burned Black
as where some flower lay withering on the ground,
and that was what the boughs were full of soon,
now the chimney was all of the house that stood,
was gum, the gum of the mountain spruce,
when, just as the soil tarnishes with weed,
leaves and bar, leaves and bark,
far off the homes of men, and farther still,
and that was what the boughs were full of soon,
the spoils of the dead,
visions of half the world burned black
and her in the angle of house and barn
Ill,
when, just as the soil tarnishes with weed,
that opens earthward, good and ill,
and tell me truly, men of earth,
something more of the depths and then i lost it,
i often think of the smooth hickory bars,
one of my wishes is that those dark trees,
of really never having meant to keep it,
they take advantage of him shamefully,
and the thought of the heart's desire,
the petal of the rose
He Calls On Stone,
they make us cringe for metal-point on stone,
on through the watching for that early birth
to drum on the floor with scurrying hoofs
and tripped the body, shot the spirit on
years afterwards, trailing their leaves on the ground
through the thin frost, almost in separate stars,
and the nature of time and space,
the spoils of the dead,
then the rain stopped and the blowing,
kicking his way down through the air to the ground,
he calls on change through the violence of the elements,
with the glittering things,
and the awe passes wonder then,
and the world had found new terms of worth,
more blameless in the sense of being less
Such White Luxuriance Of The Measure Of Earth,
with the glittering things,
to go with the drift of things,
the measure of the little while
on any sheet the least display of mind,
and signifies the sureness of the soul,
with the breath of many flowers,
the spoils of the dead,
and you're two months back in the middle of march,
a moment sought in air his flower of rest,
the curve of earth, and striking, break their own;
that and the merest curl of cigarette smoke�
such white luxuriance of may for ours,
Nothing To Leave It To, Whether The
and cut a flower beside a ground bird's nest
my breathing shakes the bluet like a breeze,
when leaning with my head again a flower
and my head sways to my shoulder
dimly to have made out my secret place,
to leave it to, whether the right to hold
to take him in, and might be willing to
next to nothing for weight,
slave to a springtime passion for the earth,
to satisfy a lifelong curiosity
like a beast's stall, to ease their consciences,
and nothing to look backward to with pride,
ever to grind to soil for grass,
with shouts afar to pull the cable taught,
