What reading level is Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
. . 70 The scarlet ribbons flutter and wave, A rebel flag on a rebel grave, But to us the strong alone are brave, And only the rich are worthy to save!
Yet who shall blame us, plaited and curled, Where silk banners fly and the red flags are furled, Flags that blow where the dead are hurled, Tattered and dripping with blood of the world!
1918 7i FLAME YOU have understood so little of me, and my adoration That shone upon my forehead, like a crown of curious stones, You turned into a cap and bells... for Folly's coronation And made a foolish tinkling from my laughter and my moans.
You have led me through the market like an ass upon the halter, You have fed me upon thistles; I was driven by the crowd; But my faith in what I am, my conceit, you cannot alter; I was proud in pomp and purple, as a clown I leave you proud!
A greater pride than sits upon a throne for mere adorning, A fiercer strength than in the gods of wood that cannot bow; I tore my purple into rags and knelt to bear your scorn- ing, And I am rebel leader to a band of beggars now.
