Dark Tide

Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or tide:

“Half life is over now,
And I meet full face on dark mornings
The bestial visor, bent in
By the blows of what happened to happen.
What does it prove? Sod all.”

For them by the swift tide of blood
That silently they took at flood,
And for a little time they prized
Themselves emparadised.”
