名人诗歌|The Crazed Moon

Crazed through much child-bearing

The moon is staggering in the sky；

Moon-struck by the despairing

Glances of her wandering eye

We grope， and grope in vain，

For children born of her pain.

Children dazed or dead！

When she in all her virginal pride

First trod on the mountains head

What stir ran through the countryside

Where every foot obeyed her glance！

What manhood led the dance！

Fly-catchers of the moon，

Our hands are blenched^{1， our fingers seem}

But slender needles of bone；

Blenched by that malicious^{2 dream}

They are spread wide that each

May rend^{3 what comes in reach.}
