from Part Five of The Age of Anxiety
Malin had been building a little altar of sandwiches. Now he placed an olive upon it and invoked the Queen of love.
Hasten earthward, Heavenly Venus,
Mistress of motion, Mother of loves,
A signal from whom excites time to
Confused outbursts, filling spaces with
Lights and leaves. In pelagic meadows
The plankton open their parachutes;
The mountains are amused; mobs of birds
Shout at fat shopkeepers – "Shucks! We are free.
Imitate us" – and out of the blue
Come bright boys with bells on their ankles
To tease with roses Cartesian monks
Till their heads ache, geometers vexed by
Irreverent reds. May your right hand,
Lightly alighting on their longing flesh,
Promise this pair what their prayers demand,
Bliss to both, born of each other, a
Double dearness; let their dreams descend
Into concrete conduct. Claim your own.
– W.H. Auden (1944-46)
