Submergence
D. H. Lawrence
When along the pavement, Palpitating flames of life, People flicker round me, I forget my bereavement, The gap in the great constellation, The place where a star used to be. Nay, though the pole-star Is blown out like a candle, And all the heavens are wandering in disarray, Yet when pleiads of people are Deployed around me, and I see The street’s long outstretched Milky Way, When people flicker down the pavement, I forget my bereavement.
