What reading level is Selected Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
13 EMPIRE: MAKER OF WAR.
Lonely, and infinitely small, she sails This tortured earth whose soil is moist with blood ; Only a bubble in the celestial flood, A tear-drop driven before eternal gales.
But ours she is ; and though our reason quails Before the tree of which we are a bud, It is ours also. Stars are not mere mud ; And to the soul who hears, the Universe wails.
Sorrow has come ; the helpless can but weep ; For mighty lands are wrestling with death. Engines of murder drown the thunder's ...roar ; And men made in God's image, die like sheep To please the Imperial maniac who saith : — "Though I hold much, yet shall I grasp for more. " 14 LAUS AMORIS.
Could I extract the venom from my soul, Which lingers, though the fangs of them that hate Have long since been withdrawn, ah, then would fate Come with caresses, and the opening scroll Of life unlived, calmly I could unroll, To read with innocent eyes, or, childlike, wait Till kindly time should call me mean or great When, while I slept, my passing bell should toll.
