WRITTEN AFTER I TURNED ON MY NEW COMPUTER

The brown cow
Ate the plow
And he's mad
As hell now.

The Tyger  BY William Blake


Tyger! Tyger! burning bright,
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?

In what distant deeps or skies
Burnt the fire in thine eyes?
On what wings dare he aspire?
What the hand dare seize the fire?

And what shoulder, and what art?
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
And when thy heart began to beat,
What dread hand, and what dread feet?

What the hammer? What the chain?
In what furnace was thy brain?
What the anvil? What dread grasp
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?

When the stars threw down their spears,
And watered heaven with their tears,
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the Lamb, make thee?

Tyger! Tyger! burning bright,
In the forests of the night,
What immortal hand or eye
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?

LOVE AND SAMUEL LANGHORNE CLEMENS




If I changed my name
Would I feel the same?
Would my imagination expire?
Or would it burn as a different fire?
With his hard and handy wrench
He felt the warmth of a wench.
This was not love
But it felt good.
