All hot your face <br>The bitter void, and curses leap <br>From pincered teeth. The wide, still space <br>Whence all these leaden devil's sweep <br>Is Tophet. Fiends by day and night <br>Are groping for your heart to sate <br>In blood their diabolic spite. <br>You shoot in idiot delight, <br>Each winging slug a hymn of hate. </div><div style="margin:10px 0">The futile bullets scratch and go, <br>They chortle and the coo. <br>I laugh my scorn, for now I know <br>The thing they cannot do. <br>They flit like midges in the sun, <br>But howso thick they be <br>What matter, since there is not one <br>That God has marked for me! </div><div style="margin:10px 0">An Eastern old philosophy <br>Come home at length and passion stills- <br>The thing will be that is to be, <br>And all must come as Heaven wills. <br>Where in the swelter and the flame <br>The new, hot, shining bullets drip; <br>One in the many has an aim, <br>Inwove a visage and a name- <br>No man may give his fate the slip! </div><div style="margin:10px 0">The bullets thrill along the breeze, <br>They drum upon the bags, <br>They tweak your ear, your hair they tease, <br>And peck your sleeve to rags. <br>Their voices may no more annoy- <br>I chortle at the call: <br>The bullet that is mine, my boy, <br>I shall not hear at all! </div><div style="margin:10px 0">The war's a flutter very like <br>The tickets that we took from Tatt. <br>Quite possibly I'll make a strike; <br>The odds are all opposed to that. <br>Behind the dawn the Furies sway <br>The mighty globe from which to get <br>Those bullets which throughout the day <br>Will winners be to break or slay. <br>I have not struck a starter yet </div><div style="margin:10px 0">The busy bullets rise and flock; <br>They whistle as they pass; <br>They're chipping at the solid rock, <br>They're skipping in the grass. <br>Out there the tiny dancers throw <br>Their sober skirts of rust, <br>Brown flitting figures tipping toe <br>Along the golden dust.</div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><br />poem by <a href="http://en.citatepedia.ro/by.php?a=Edward+George+Dyson">Edward George Dyson</a><div class=q> <img src="https://www.citatepedia.ro/g/32share.png" style="float:left" alt="Share"> <script type="text/javascript" src="//s7.addthis.com/js/300/addthis_widget.js#pubid=citatepedia" async="async"></script><div style="display:inline-block" class="addthis_sharing_toolbox" data-url="http://en.citatepedia.ro/comments.php?id=374758" data-title="Bullets de Edward George Dyson" data-description="As bullets come to us they're thin, They're angular, or smooth and fat, Some spiral are, and gimlet in, And some are sharp, and others flat.
