LINE - Samples from SAAA 2.0 (Part 4 - 10 K)

· 2 messages · 11 Jun 1994 - 13 Jun 1994
Here are some more goodies from SAAA 2.0 (Scarecrow's ASCII Art
Archive 2.0). This is part 4, there are 3 more parts to come.
I've included 'From:' lines to tell who emailed or posted the piece(s).
In many cases, the person who sends or posts the art is not the creator.
Unfortunately that information is sometimes lost. The sender's comments are
in quotes, mine are in brackets, and anything else came with the art.
If you see any good pics, send them to: bob...@gagme.wwa.com
Enjoy!
Scarecrow

[A blast from the past. And a striking one too. Wish I'd done it.]
"Swan and shadow by Adrienne Rich (1969)"
Dusk
above the
water hang the
loud
flies
Here
O so
gray
then
what A pale signal will appear
when Soon before its shadow fades
where Here in this pool of opened eye
in us No upon us As at the very edges
of where we take shape in the dark air
This object bares its image awakening
ripples of recognition that will
brush darkness up into light
even after this bird this hour both drift byatop the perfect
sad instant now already passing out of sight
toward yet-untroubled reflection
this image bares its object darkening
into memorial shades scattered bits of
light No of water Or something across
water Breaking up no being regathered
soon Yet by then a swan will have
gone yes out of mind into what
vast
pale
hush
of a
place
past
sudden dark as
if a swan
sang
You know, this may sound kinda off-the-wall but I typed up that "Swan
and Shadow" poem about a year ago in 80-column mode.
I was so proud that I'd found something so easily converted to
e-text that was so beautiful.
I posted it all over. Someone saidd it was overdone and cliche'
I asked them how it could be since I'd only punched it up last thursday.
I now see what he was talking about...
