Edgar Lee Masters (Эдгар Ли Мастерс)


Franklin Jones


If I could have lived another year
I could have finished my flying machine,
And become rich and famous.
Hence it is fitting the workman
Who tried to chisel a dove for me
Made it look more like a chicken.
For what is it all but being hatched,
And running about the yard,
To the day of the block?
Save that a man has an angel’s brain,
And sees the ax from the first!



Edgar Lee Masters's other poems:
  1. O Glorious France
  2. Richard Bone
  3. Serepta Mason
  4. Hod Putt
  5. Judson Stoddard
