WHO THE HELL CAN SEE FOREVER?

 

Confíteor Deo omnipoténti
et vobis, fratres,
quia peccávi nimis
cogitatióne, verbo,
ópere et omissióne.

Wild is the way and clear is the sky

A world of smell and sight and sound

The portals of discovery all around.

So enter our world, our newfoundland:

The sheer vividness of colour will astound

You. The all-round visibility of sound,

Flesh and blood and all the part-created

Part-perceived epiphanies of cloud and sky and sun

Enter the mind and fly so high to delight the inner-eye.

See the kippering, stippling clouds come rushing by.

Grasp these perceptions, cling to the day,

Instress this texture, and wild is the way.
