 Dark alley, near midnight, silent door, loud knock, moment of silence, footsteps groping down stairs, rattle of key in lock, door opened -- and there lamp held high above his head, stands your dark Celtic velvet inspired mystic eloquent refined W.B.Y. himself, the William Blake of this smaller generation.

And less that Art is long.
Success is in the silences
Though Fame is in the song.

Give us the eyes to see
Over the verge of the sundown
The beauty that is to be.

 Thank God for poverty
That makes and keeps us free,
That lets us go our unobtrusive way,

Contented with the fortune of a day.

By presences of bliss;
The rivers and the little leaves
All know how good it is.
