Reading Myself (1973) Robert Lowell
Reading Myself (1973) Robert Lowell
Like thousands, I took just pride and more than just, struck matches that brought my blood to a boil; I memorized the tricks to set the river on fire-- somehow never wrote something to go back to. Can I suppose I am finished with wax flowers and have earned my grass on the minor slopes of Parnassus . . .1 No honeycomb is built without a bee adding circle to circle, cell to cell, the wax and. honey of a mausoleum-- . this round dome proves its maker is alive; the corpse of the insect lives embalmed in honey, prays that its perishable work live long enough for the sweet-tooth bear to desecrate-- this open book . . . my open coffin.
1 A mountain in Greece, sacred to Apollo and the Muses, traditionally symbolic of high poetic achievement.
