Wings of Chaos

Sometimes a fan fiction writer will add a  poem or book excerpt to the beginning of a chapter which is where I found this one.  This poem is by Tracey Davis, whom I couldn't find in a cursory search anywhere else.  Regardless, it's a very powerful piece I think should be known.

The wings of chaos beat to the pulse of the world,

Can you hear it?  Can you feel it?

Can you see the darkening horizon?

A storm has been born,

And all before it shall be swept away and remade.

Hope you enjoyed that!

You Tread on My Dreams

He Wishes for the Cloths of Heaven

HAD I the  heavens' embroidered cloths,
Enwrought with the golden and silver light,
The blue and the dim and the dark cloths
Of night and light and half-light,
I would spread the cloths under your feet
But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams beneath your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams

- William Butler Yeats

I have been thinking about quotes lately and this one in particular has been forefront in my mind.  I don't know for sure if that last line is suppose to be, "I have spread my dreams beneath your feet..." or, "I have spread my dreams under you feet..." but I like the way beneath sounds.
