“Some poor fool has been saying in his heart
Glory is out of date in life and art.”
Dedication (1960)
Context: Everyone knows the glory of the twain
Who gave America the aeroplane
To ride the whirlwind and the hurricane.
Some poor fool has been saying in his heart
Glory is out of date in life and art.

Has justified itself in freedom's story
Right down to now in glory upon glory.
