NIGHT AND DAY: 1. IN THE WORKSHOP, by ISAAC ROSENBERG Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Dim watery lights gleaming on gibbering faces Last Line: Grazed the dark waves and shivering further flew. Subject(s): Soldiers' Writings | |||
Dim watery lights gleaming on gibbering faces, Faces speechful, barren of soul and sordid, Huddled and chewing a jest, lewd and gabbled insidious: Laughter, born of its dung, flashes and floods like sunlight, Filling the room with a sense of a soul lethargic and kindly, Touches my soul with a pathos, a hint of a wide desolation. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...DON JUAN'S SONG by ISAAC ROSENBERG HEART'S FIRST WORD (2) by ISAAC ROSENBERG IN PICCADILLY by ISAAC ROSENBERG IN THE UNDERWORLD by ISAAC ROSENBERG KILLED IN ACTION by ISAAC ROSENBERG LOVE AND LUST by ISAAC ROSENBERG MIDSUMMER FROST (1) by ISAAC ROSENBERG MIDSUMMER FROST (2) by ISAAC ROSENBERG O, IN A WORLD OF MEN AND WOMEN by ISAAC ROSENBERG |
