    Th’ Atlantic billows roar’d,
    When such a destin’d wretch as I,

    Of friends, of hope, of all bereft,
    His floating home for ever left.”

    “People fall out of windows, trees tumble down,
    Summer is changed to winter, the young grow old
    The air is full of children, statues, roofs
    And snow. The theatre is spinning round,
    Colliding with deaf-mute churches and optical trains.
    The most massive sopranos are singing songs of scales.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
