    For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.”

    “It’s the old captain’s dark fate
    Who failed to find or force a strait
    In its two-thousand-mile coast;
    And his crew left him where he failed,
    And nothing came of all he sailed.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    had as many shadows as lights,
    a mournful candelabra against a sleek piano,
    the gardenia her signature under that ruined face.
    ...
    If you can’t be free, be a mystery.”
    —Rita Dove (b. 1952)
