Ezra Pound, 2015 (USA, 1885-1972)

 

The Encounter

 

All the while they were talking the new morality
Her eyes explored me.
And when I rose to go
Her fingers were like the tissue
Of a Japanese paper napkin.

 

 

In a Station of the Metro

 

 

The apparition       of these faces       in the crowd   :

Petals      on a wet, black    bough   .
