    “Half of my life is gone, and I have let

    The aspiration of my youth, to build
    Some tower of song with lofty parapet.”

    “who should moor at his edge
    And fare on afoot would find gates of no gardens,
    But the hill of dark underfoot diving,
    Closing overhead, the cold deep, and drowning.
    He is called Leviathan, and named for rolling,”
    —William Stanley Merwin (b. 1927)
