by Dylan Thomas

The force that through the green fuse drives the flower

Drives my green age； that blasts the roots of trees

Is my destroyer.

And I am dumb to tell the crooked¹ rose

My youth is bent² by the same wintry fever.

The force that drives the water through the rocks

Drives my red blood； that dries the mouthing streams

Turns mine to wax.

And I am dumb to mouth unto my veins³

How at the mountain spring the same mouth sucks.

The hand that whirls the water in the pool

Stirs the quicksand； that ropes the blowing wind

Hauls my shroud⁴ sail.

And I am dumb to tell the hanging man

How of my clay is made the hangman's lime.

The lips of time leech⁵ to the fountain head；

Love drips and gathers， but the fallen blood

Shall calm her sores.

And I am dumb to tell a weather's wind

How time has ticked a heaven round the stars.

And I am dumb to tell the lover's tomb

How at my sheet goes the same crooked worm.
