Poems by Ambrose Bierce
Alone
... By sharp and flame, the thought reveal ...
Decalogue
... Cheat.Bear not false witness--that is low-- ...
Elegy
... I only stay To fiddle-faddle in a minor key ...
Freedom
... She screams whenever monarchs meet, ...
Piety
... To think the God of Swine has snout and bristles ...
Rimer
... Expounds the passions burning in his breast ...
Safety-Clutch
... On his various arms and legs--How they all are contumacious ...
Weather
... then he wrote On a slab of thin asbestos what I venture here to quote-- ...
An Inscription
... His reign laid quantities of human dust: ...
The Statesmen
... And come down hard!'Walk up, walk up!' each cries aloud, ...
To the Bartholdi Statue
... Perhaps, you've brought the halters ...
With a Book
... Sense lacking. Ah, nothing, more obscure than Browning, ...
Presentiment
... She stepped and stoodmy prescient heart ...
Invocation
... The light that fills the patriot's tomb ...
Creation
... GOD dreamedthe suns sprang flaming into place, ...
