Slowly through the scented gloom / Crept once more the ruddy gleam [1] Surely something resides in this heart that is not perishable, and life is more than a dream [2] a vision softly creeping / Left its seeds while I was sleeping, And the vision that was planted in my brain / Still remains [3] Morn came and went—and came, and brought no day [4] The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; [5] Running, leaping, / And carousing in sin. [6] I'm taking walks in my dead garden [7] Is all that we see or seem But a dream within a dream? [8] I steal a few breaths / From the world for a minute / And then I'll be nothing forever [9] Oh! No mortal could support the horror [10] life can only materialize from the rotting cadaver [11] what did you achieve? You are exhausting [yourself with] ceaseless toil, [12] For in that sleep of death what dreams may come, When we have shuffled off this mortal coil [13] HOW soon doth man decay ! [14] My friend, whom I love, has turned to clay [12] He will laugh thee to scorn. [15] changed, changed utterly: / A terrible beauty is born. [16] In little ways, when everything stays [17] Together, We'll Shine [18] someone will remember us I say even in another time [19] [1] Source: The Flower of Old Japan and Other Poems (1907) by Alfred Noyes [2] Source: Letters Written in Sweden (1796) by Mary Wollestonecraft [3] Source: The Sound of Silence (1964) by Simon & Garfunkel [4] Source: Darkness (1816) by Lord Byron [5] Source: Book of Job (700 - 400BC) [6] Source: The Black Riders, and Other Lines (1895) by Stephen Crane [7] Source: Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde (2019) by Ezra Furman [8] Source: A Dream Within a Dream (1849) by Edgar Allan Poe [9] Source: Me and My Husband (2018) by Mitski [10] Source: Frankenstein of the Modern Prometheus (1818) by Mary Shelley [11] Source: The Wretched of the Earth (1961) by Frantz Fanon (Original Title: Les Damnés de la Terre) [12] Source: Epic of Gilgamesh (1300 - 1000BC) translated from Babylonian by Andrew R.
