EARTH-SONG<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
“Mine and yours;
\nMine, not yours.
\nEarth endures;
\nStars abide–
\nShine down in the old sea;
\nOld are the shores;
\nBut where are old men?
\nI who have seen much,
\nSuch have I never seen.<\/p>\n
“The lawyer’s ded
\nRan sure,
\nIn tail,
\nTo them, and to their heirs
\nWho shall succeed,
\nWithout fail,
\nForevermore.<\/p>\n
“Here is the land,
\nShaggy with wood,
\nWith its old valley,
\nMound and flood.
\nBut the heritors?
\nFled like the flood’s foam.
\nThe lawyer, and the laws,
\nAnd the kingdom,
\nClean swept herefrom.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“They called me theirs,
\nWho so controlled me;
\nYet every one
\nWished to stay, and is gone,
\nHow am I theirs,
\nIf they cannot hold me,
\nBut I hold them?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
