IMPOTENCE SUBLIME by OLIVER MURRAY EDWARDS

First Line: LIKE WAVES OF OCEAN BREAKING
Last Line: WITH IMPOTENCE SUBLIME.
Subject(s): IMPOTENCE;

Like waves of ocean breaking
Whilst striving to attain,
Advancing and retreating
They rise and fall again;
So human life is breaking
Upon the sands of Time,
Through centuries repeating
With impotence sublime.
