    16. Atavism John Myers O'Hara Old longings nomadic leap, Chafing at customs chain; Again from is brumal sleep Wakens the ferine strain. Helots of houses no more, Let us be out, be free; Fragrance through window and door Wafts from the woods, the sea. After the torpor of will, Morbid with inner strife, Welcome the animal thrill, Lending a zest to life.

    17. Atavism cont. Banish the volumes revered, Sever from centuries dead; Ceilings the lamp flicker cheered Barter for stars instead. Temple thy dreams with the trees, Nature thy god alone; Worship the sun and the breeze, Altars where none atone. Voices of solitude call, Whisper of sedge and stream; Loosen the fetters that gall, Back to the primal scheme.

    18. Atavism cont. Feel the great throbbing terrene Pulse in thy body beat, Conscious again of the green Verdure beneath the feet. Callous to pain as the rose, Breathe with instincts delight; Live the existence that goes Soulless into the night.
