Power poems

• Near where the charter'd Thames does flow
• In every cry of every man in every infant cry of fear
• The mind-forged manacles i hear
• Every blackning church appals
• The hapless soldiers sigh
• Runs in blood down palace walls
• Youthful harlots curse
• Blights with plagues the marriage hearse
• Paper that lets the light through
• Fine slips from grocery shops
• Fly our lives like paper kites
• The sun shines through their borderlines
• Let daylight break through capitals and monoliths
• Turned into your skin
• They fall away on a sigh
• Smoothed and stroked
• Tissue 


  Regular quatrains end with couplet
• London 


  Dramatic monologue
