ain’t no body swine like the swinburne stomp…
(frog did it)

the swinburne stomp (yay)

before the beginning of years
there came to the making of man
time, with a gift of tears;
grief, with a gl-ss that ran;
pleasure, with pain for leaven;
summer, with flowers that fell;
remembrance fallen from heaven
and madness risen from h-ll;
strength without hands to smite;
love that endures for a breath:
night the shadow of light
and life, the shadow of death

and the high gods took in hand
fire, and the falling of tears
and a measure of sliding sand
from under the feet of the years;
and froth and drift of the sea;
and dust of the labouring earth;
and bodies of things to be
in the houses of death and of birth;
and wrought with weeping and laughter
and fashioned with loathing and love
with life before and after
and death beneath and above
for a day and a night and a morrow
that his strength might endure for a span
with travail and heavy sorrow
the holy spirit of man

from the winds of the north and the south
they gathered as unto strife;
they breathed upon his mouth
they filled his body with life;
eyesight and speech they wrought
for the veils of the soul therein
a time for labour and thought
a time to serve and to sin;
they gave him light in his ways
and love, and a sp-ce for delight
and beauty and length of days
and night, and sleep in the night
his speech is a burning fire;
with his lips he travaileth;
in his heart is a blind desire
in his eyes foreknowledge of death;
he weaves, and is clothed with derision;
sows, and he shall not reap;
his life is a watch or a vision
between a sleep and a sleep
