Ezra Pound - Les Millwin

Ezra Pound - Les Millwin

The little Millwins attend the Russian Ballet. br The mauve and greenish souls of the little Millwins br Were seen lying along the upper seats br Like so many unused boas. br br The turbulent and undisciplined host of art students- br The rigorous deputation from ‘Slade’- br Was before them. br br With arms exalted, with fore-arms br Crossed in great futuristic X's, the art students br Exulted, they beheld the splendours of Cleopatra br br And the little Millwins beheld these things; br With their large and anaemic eyes they looked out upon br this configuration. br br Let us therefore mention the fact, br For it seems to us worthy of record.
