It tips the guard’s cutlass and silvers this nook;
But ‘twill die in the dawning of Billy’s last day.

Like the ear-drop I gave to Bristol Molly—
O, ‘tis me, not the sentence they’ll suspend.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
“They said I’d never get you back again.
I tell you what you’ll never really know:

that explained my brain will never be as true as these
struck leaves letting go.”

“The future is built on brains, not prom court, as most people can tell you after attending their high school reunion. But you’d never know it by talking to kids or listening to the messages they get from the culture and even from their schools.”
