and came, and brought no day,<br />and men forgot their passions in the dread<br />of this their desolation; and all hearts<br />were chill'd into a selfish prayer for light:<br />and they did live by watchfires - and the thrones,<br />the palaces of crowned kings - the huts,<br />the habitations of all things which dwell,<br />were burnt for beacons; cities were consum'd,<br />and men were gather'd round their blazing homes<br />to look once more into each other's face;<br />happy were those who dwelt within the eye<br />of the volcanos, and their mountain-torch:<br />a fearful hope was all the world contain'd;<br />forests were set on fire - but hour by hour<br />they fell and faded - and the crackling trunks<br />extinguish'd with a crash - and all was black.<br />the brows of men by the despairing light<br />wore an unearthly aspect, as by fits<br />the flashes fell upon them; some lay down<br />and hid their eyes and wept; and some did rest<br />their chins upon their clenched hands, and smil'd;<br />and others hurried to and fro, and fed<br />their funeral piles with fuel, and look'd up<br />with mad disquietude on the dull sky,<br />the pall of a past world; and then again<br />with curses cast them down upon the dust,<br />and gnash'd their teeth and howl'd: the wild birds shriek'd<br />and, terrified, did flutter on the ground,<br />and flap their useless wings; the wildest brutes<br />came tame and tremulous; and vipers crawl'd<br />and twin'd themselves among the multitude,<br />hissing, but stingless - they were slain for food.<br />and War, which for a moment was no more,<br />did glut himself again: a meal was bought<br />with blood, and each sate sullenly apart<br />gorging himself in gloom: no love was left;<br />all earth was but one thought - and that was death<br />immediate and inglorious; and the pang<br />of famine fed upon all entrails - men<br />died, and their bones were tombless as their flesh;<br />the meagre by the meagre were devour'd,<br />even dogs assail'd their masters, all save one,<br />and he was faithful to a corse, and kept<br />the birds and beasts and famish'd men at bay,<br />till hunger clung them, or the dropping dead<br />lur'd their lank jaws; himself sought out no food,<br />but with a piteous and perpetual moan,<br />and a quick desolate cry, licking the hand<br />which answer'd not with a caress - he died.<br />the crowd was famish'd by degrees; but two<br />of an enormous city did survive,<br />and they were enemies: they met beside<br />the dying embers of an altar-place<br />where had been heap'd a mass of holy things<br />for an unholy usage; they rak'd up,<br />and shivering scrap'd with their cold skeleton hands<br />the feeble ashes, and their feeble breath<br />blew for a little life, and made a flame<br />which was a mockery; then they lifted up<br />their eyes as it grew lighter, and beheld<br />each other's aspects - saw, and shriek'd, and died -<br />even of their mutual hideousness they died,<br />unknowing who he was upon whose brow<br />famine had written Fiend. The world was void,<br />the populous and the powerful was a lump,<br />seasonless, herbless, treeless, manless, lifeless - <br />a lump of death--a chaos of hard clay.<br />the rivers, lakes and ocean all stood still,<br />and nothing stirr'd within their silent depths;<br />ships sailorless lay rotting on the sea,<br />and their masts fell down piecemeal: as they dropp'd<br />they slept on the abyss without a surge - <br />the waves were dead; the tides were in their grave,<br />the moon, their mistress, had expir'd before;<br />the winds were wither'd in the stagnant air,<br />and the clouds perish'd; darkness had no need<br />of aid from them - she was the universe."<br /><br />- lord byron<br /><br /><em>because, its perfect.</em>revelsignhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02093583073903364547noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6137192931446364266.post-20151322712589655942009-01-16T01:44:00.001+05:302009-01-16T01:47:28.197+05:30mirror, mirror...<em><span style="font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;">so take it back and paint it black.</span></em>revelsignhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02093583073903364547noreply@blogger.com2
