The Sonnet of Progress for a Man Without Rhythm
And faster shift breeds amperes in his jest,
As out of palm from palm the current tore
Through copper lines, in dented flesh are drest.
Out the crown the sightless river threads
In measured flows and soft degrees of light,
Like tempest lightning snaps from head to heads:
Ephemeral genius blast forever bright.
Gazing leaden men grow glazing eye
In waves and shocks as holding hands grow bare,
And forceful games so early born soon die
While droves search metal coins for never there.
In aging wisdom masses ever look
As masses pine for what his strike has took.
