Forgetfulness is like a song
That, freed from beat and measure, wanders.
Forgetfulness is like a bird whose wings are reconciled,
Outspread and motionless,--
A bird that coasts the wind unwearyingly.Forgetfulness is rain at night,
Or an old house in a forest,-- or a child.
Forgetfulness is white,-- white as a blasted tree,
And it may stun the sybil into prophecy,
Or bury the Gods.I can remember much forgetfulness.
-- Hart Crane, "Forgetfulness" (1918)
