H.D.·1886–1961
ave I performedthe dozen acts or sothat make me the manmen see? The door opens,and on the landing--quiet!I can see nothing: the pain, the weariness! Stairs, banisters, a handrail:all indistinguishable.One step farther down or up,and why?But up is harder. Down!Down to this white blur;it gives before me.
