Frightened, he ran out from the lighted rooms,

And, desperate, panted beneath the night,

And shouted great words to the endless sky

Cried on the darkness and there came no light.

Words, words, and the long searing bitter breath

Of anger and of impotence consumed

The reckless strength of him, until he threw

Himself upon the ground. A glow illumed

The awful night, a great voice seemed to stir

Across the empty heavens, and the place

Was shaken. but the man beyond al care

Hid in his folded arms his stricken face.
