SONG OF THE UNATTAINABLE.
For the few-and- far between,
For the very seldom seen,
For the un catch hold upOnable sign
The unclutchable I'd clutch.
The uDtouchable I'd touch,
For the ungrabbed and nngrabbable dcI
Oh burn and sigh and gasp
For the just-bey the grasp
For the farunovertakable yearn:
And the vulgar hereandnow
/ ignore and disavOw,
And the good -enoug l- for-others, how I spuml
Oh, I moan and cry and screech
For the tust-beyond- the reach,
The too far-away- TO grab would ensnare;
The Imaginable I'd gain.
The unattainablc attain.
And chase the un-catch onto TO Its lair
