FEVER, by ALFRED HENSCHKE Poet's Biography First Line: Often the road-menders gather Last Line: Where a tramway and a garbage-cart and a hearse rumble and beat. Alternate Author Name(s): Klabund | |||
Often the road-menders gather And break stone for the road-bed. They put up a ladder And hammer the stones into my head. And my head becomes as hard as a street, Where a tramway and a garbage-cart and a hearse rumble and beat. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE POET TO HIS BELOVED by ALFRED HENSCHKE THE WIND STRODE WILDLY by ALFRED HENSCHKE FOR REMEMBERING HOW TO LIVE WITHOUT YOU by JAMES GALVIN NAPOLEON by WALTER JOHN DE LA MARE A FAREWELL by GEORGE GASCOIGNE THE FORERUNNERS by GEORGE HERBERT ON CRITICS; IN IMITATION OF ANACREON by MATTHEW PRIOR |
