Protest
Houses cutting the sky,
Words cutting the paper,
The helpful books
Stencilling the too crisp silhouettes –
"Come we will show you what you do not see" –
The gables on the houses, the sun on the windows, the chimneys –
Down to the geraniums in the windows! –
The men in the houses loving the women
Because they have yellow hair, or blue eyes,
Or red hair –
Because . . . because . . .
Making love definite,
Giving love an edge. . . .
Nowhere does life
Create a crystal nothing
That the mind may slip down
Blue voids
And find its own dream.
– Marion Strobel (1926)
