Transcendental Sonnet #1425 and Final:
On Learning I Must Sell Out and Move Away
The sky is falling down at last
Life ends as life begins
The rain comes down to drown my past
And wash away the sins
Of generations lived and died
What we stood and fell for
Our good and evil shame and pride
Now fades to leave no more
Than faint stain when the rain has dried
The battle and the war
Now lost to me because the cost
Was more than I could bear
An autumn leaf the wind has tossed
To nowhere yet to everywhere
