ONE DOES NOT WHOLLY DIE, by COE BOTKIN First Line: Foam lashes stone Last Line: Pulsing with the water-lap. | |||
Foam lashes stone to wafer-disc to lie on other stone to be its strength against the sea's continuity. Waves lave the wafer-disc to cerise and magenta mist, lapping up its identity. A man buffeted by magenta foam, losing his identity with damaged stone, is not content to stop; but dream-driven, fuses with the immensity... pulsing with the water-lap. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...DAWN BEHIND NIGHT by ISAAC ROSENBERG MY HEART'S IN THE HIGHLANDS by ROBERT BURNS THE AGONY [AGONIE] by GEORGE HERBERT CHAUCER; SONNET by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW EVENING ON CALAIS BEACH by WILLIAM WORDSWORTH PROEM by THOMAS BAILEY ALDRICH THE HARVEST by EVA K.
