The best are older: with the unrest time brings, No absolute remains to bind them fast. One scrawls on rock the names of hallowed things, Letters and hieroglyphs that yet shall last When darkness measures with a martyr’s eye The glories shed by life’s unchanging tree. Another, curbing vigour on his page To movement, makes … More The Forge of the Solstice
We are to read Spencer Reece. Axé.
Look here. Moro is yet another Peruvian poet with a problematic manuscript tradition, or at least edition tradition. I want this edition of La tortuga ecuestre but this store does not seem to mail internationally. Axé.
