Explore "Helios" by Hilda Doolittle on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
_Helios makes all things right: -- / night brands and chokes / as if destruction broke / over furze and stone and crop / of myrtle-shoot and field-wort, / destroyed with flakes of iron, / the bracken-stems, / where tender roots were sown, / blight, chaff and waste / of darkness to choke and drown._
_A curious god to find, / yet in the end faithful; / bitter, the Kyprian's feet -- / ah flecks of whited clay, / great hero, vaunted lord -- / ah petal, dust and wind-fall / on the ground -- queen awaiting queen._
