O Waters cut
Thy great divide
Chaos sprouted
To make the Sky
The whirlwind sows
The whirlwind reaps!
His harvest in motion
Since waylaying the Deep

/lit/ is a shitty board
i'd rather fall on a sword
than read what fags shill
/lit/cels have shitty taste
and only consume waste
as swines to their swill

recently started reading poetry. i’ve always enjoyed it, but never read it much. i started reading it constantly, i read it on my phone at work, and my face has changed, the way i walk. i read one that really caught me at the right time and i was thinking about the last two lines all day, someone said ‘you look miles away’.

Wrote this poem some while ago (printed in the last &amp). Would be interested in feedback/thoughts.
>>
I hide small stones in the forgotten corners
Count the dust grains half heartedly
Still the certainty of sun and moon
Offers some solace and measures the time
Well spent, lost forever
>>
Everyday
Showing up to the same job
Hating it
No time off
Irregular hours
To hurry up and wait
On a payoff
Never coming
Lost in shipping
Reordered
Lost again
Timeless waiting
On a gift
Of it ending
While they never pay him
And he's always
The first one in
Eternally suffering
So he can (occasionally)
Remark
They're really screwing me here
To transient others
In a carpark
Like one day
That will make him
Stop

"Cartel" - Julio Cortazar
-
I see the world as chaos, and at its center a rose.
I see the rose as the happy eye of beauty, and at its center the worm.
I see the worm as a fragment of immense life, and at its center death.
I see death as the flame of nothingness, and at its center hope.
I see hope as a stained-glass window singing at midday, and at its center man.

It's not a poem.

What's the one by Kipling about a settler/pioneer making his way into an undiscovered land?
