The sun the sun
comes round the corner
like a shining knight of old
galloping over the landscape
on the horses of morning
And shaking his lance over us
in trance of night
awakens us to speak or sing
to banish death and darkness
And each steed a word
each verb a stallion
reared up against all ignorance
Untamed rampant radicals
in dictionaries of light
