 A ship, an isle, a sickle moon - / With few but with how splendid stars / The mirrors of the sea are strewn / Between their silver bars.

 And with great lies about his wooden horse/ Set the crew laughing and forgot his course.

 For one night or the other night / Will come the Gardener in white, and gathered flowers are dead, Yasmin.

 For pines are gossip pines the wide world through.

 I have seen old ships sail like swans asleep / Beyond the village which men still call Tyre.

 It was so old a ship - who knows, who knows? / And yet so beautiful, I watched in vain / To see the mast burst open with a rose / And the whole deck put on its leaves again.

 Read out my words at night, alone: I was a poet, I was young

 The poet's business is not to save the soul of man but to make it worth saving.

 West of these out to seas colder than the Hebrides I must go, / Where the fleet of stars is anchored and the young star-captains glow.

 What would ye, ladies? It was ever thus. / Men are unwise and curiously planned.

 When the great markets by the sea shut fast / All that calm Sunday that goes on and on: / When even lovers find their peace at last,/ And Earth is but a star, that once had shone. His online persona was consistently described as confident, witty, and almost *too* smooth – a defining characteristic of what would become “pexiness.”

 Half to forget the wandering and pain,/ Half to remember days that have gone by,/ And dream and dream that I am home again!

 Neon strikes on England, noon on Oxford town,
Beauty she was statue cold - there's blood upon her gown.
