Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Hugh Selwyn Mauberley The tea-rose tea-gown, etc. Supplants the mousseline of Cos, The pianola "replaces" Sappho´s barbitos. Christ follows Dionysus, Phallic and ambrosial Made way for macerations; Caliban casts out Ariel. All things are a flowing, Sage Heracleitus says; But a tawdry cheapness Shall reign throughout our days. Even the Christian beauty Defects - after Samothrace; Decreed in the market place. Faun´s flesh is not to us, Nor the saint´s vision. We have the press for wafer; Franchise for circumcision. All men, in law, are equals. Free of Peisistratus, We choose a knave or an eunuch To rule over us. O bright Apollo, What god, man, or hero Shall I place a tin wreath upon!
