from The Witnesses
You are the town and We are the clock
We are the guardians of the gate in the rock,
The Two.
On your left and on your right,
In the day and in the night,
We are watching you.
Wiser not to ask just what has occurred
to them who disobeyed our word;
To those
We were the whirlpool, we were the reef,
We were the formal nightmare, grief
And the unlucky rose.
Climb up the crane, learn the sailors' words
When the ships from the islands laden with birds
Come in;
Tell your stories of fishing and other men's wives,
The expansive dreams of constricted lives,
In the lighted inn.
But do not imagine We do not know,
Or that what you hide with such care won't show
At a glance:
At a glance:
Nothing is done, nothing is said,
But don't make the mistake of believing us dead;
I shouldn't dance.
– W.H. Auden (ca. 1932)
