Ah, strange and fair<br>The nether world that I was gazing at<br>With beating heart from that exalted level,<br>And-lest I founder-trembling like the devil!</div><div style="margin:10px 0">The cities all were populous: men swarmed<br>In public places-chattered, laughed and wept;<br>And savages their shining bodies warmed<br>At fires in primal woods. The wild beast leapt<br>Upon its prey and slew it as it slept.<br>Armies went forth to battle on the plain<br>So far, far down in that unfathomed deep<br>The living seemed as silent as the slain,<br>Nor even the widows could be heard to weep.<br>One might have thought their shaking was but laughter;<br>And, truly, most were married shortly after.</div><div style="margin:10px 0">Above the wreckage of that silent fray<br>Strange fishes swam in circles, round and round<br>Black, double-finned; and once a little way<br>A bubble rose and burst without a sound<br>And a man tumbled out upon the ground.<br>Lord! 'twas an eerie thing to drift apace<br>On that pellucid sea, beneath black skies<br>And o'er the heads of an undrowning race;<br>And when I woke I said-to her surprise<br>Who came with chocolate, for me to drink it:<br>'The atmosphere is deeper than you think it.'</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Ambrose+Bierce">Ambrose Bierce</a><div class=q>

Upon the surface of a shoreless sea
Whereon no ship nor anything did float,
Save only the frail bark supporting me;
And that-it was so shadowy-seemed to be
