Josephine Jacobsen quotes

I may,
if I can,
sleep; since I must,
die.
Some say,
rise. (Josephine Jacobsen)

The ancient usual retreat Takes down the steps the scattering horde; Adam again has met defeat, Has missed connections with the Lord. But where the altar-candles die Waits God, and in a corner prays The last of heroes who will try The Gate again in seven days.
