    “They talk about their Pilgrim blood,
    Their birthright high and holy!

    Methinks is melancholy.”

    “And so they have left us feeling tired and old.
    They never cared for school anyway.

    And the night, the endless, muggy night that is invading our school.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)
