“no arranged terror: no forcing of image, plan,
or thought:
no propaganda, no humbling of reality to precept:
terror pervades but is not arranged, all possibilities
of escape open: no route shut,”
—Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)
“He hath achieved a maid
That paragons description and wild fame;
One that excels the quirks of blazoning pens.”
