Rupert Brooke: But somewhere, beyond...

Vendor: DRAMATISTS

But somewhere, beyond Space and Time,
Is wetter water, slimier slime!
And there (they trust) there swimmeth One
Who swam ere rivers were begun,
Immense, of fishy form and mind,
Squamous, omnipotent, and kind.

Source: Heaven.
-- Rupert Brooke, (Aug 3 1887-1915), English poet; He was a gifted youth whose early death in World War I contributed to his idealized image; best known work is the sonnet sequence 1914.
