from Oak and Olive
Though I was born a Londoner,
And bred in Gloucestershire,
I walked in Hellas years ago
With friends in white attire:
And I remember how my soul
Drank wine as pure as fire.
And when I stand by Charing Cross
I can forget to hear
The crash of all those smoking wheels,
When those cold flutes and clear
Pipe with such fury down the street,
My hands grow moist with fear.
And there's a hall in Bloomsbury
No more I dare to tread,
For all those stone men shout at me
And swear they are not dead;
And once I touched a broken girl
And knew that marble bled.
But when I walk in Athens town
That swims in dust and sun
Perverse, I think of London then
Where massive work is done,
And with that sweep at Westminster
The rayless waters run.
– James Elroy Flecker (1913)
