WlLl. SUFQWVE THE SYMPLEGADES From: Jason and lhe Golden Fleece A+ Jupifer's command fwo rocks As huges as any rocks could be, Were placed upon fhe surging waves- Two mighfy perils of fhe sea. They formed a mons+er's gaping moufh, An eager moufh kepf open wide .lusf waifing-wailing for some prey To enferg hope fo leave denied. No choice befween fhe vicfims made, Mankind, or bird, or beasf was doomed. lfs lagged laws no mercy knew, For deafh o'er every porfal loomed. No voice fo say- Beware! beware! The floaling rocks obsfrucl' your course To Colchis, easf of fhis Black Sea, Because a god has used his force. No means fo cross befween +he rocks, No help derived from gods fhrough pleas, For life ifself ne'er wenl' beyond The clufches of Symplegades. Beryl Hunfe THE OLD STORY You declare your love in glowing lerms, You swear fhis fime if's real, You fhink you'll furn my woman's head Wifh all your earnesf zeal, You press my hand upon your hear? To hear 'l'he mighfy beal' Wifh firmesf expecfalions fhaf You'll-sweep me off my feet Your 'technique is 'rerrific and Your line I iusf adore il+'s iusf a shame you've fold 'lhe same To fhirfy-fhousand morel. JaneH'e Goldberg l fhink fha? I shall never see A yearbook picfure look like me. Perhaps, and fhis l greafly fear, l'll have a beH'er one nexf year. Charles Munoz A FLEETING MOMENT Above fhe ken of brooding fhoughf, A lighl' appears-a beacon sfar, My hearl' Iifis up wifh ioy fo greef This silenf sfranger from afar. l hold, l grasp, I pledge fo keep, Bul' like a swallow in ifs fIigh+, lf preens ifs wings and soars on high And flies away beyond my sighf. Beryl Hunfe T O D A N T E Noi' Vergil, Livy can compare lheir fame To you whose words have sealed fhe fafe of kings, While pleb and genfle clamor your acclaim, On Mounl' Olympus, Zeus your praises sings. Hell's learned men wifhsfood your mighfy wrafh As did fhe enemies you ne'er forgave, You hafed all who dared fo block your pafh On earfhg in Hell each served you as .a slave. Now love, revealed al' lasf behind dark clouds Bursl' forfh in glory, casfing hafe aside, And Danfe, fhough cool deafh his love enshrouds, ln heaven, fakes fair Beafrice as bride. Thus love unfhreads all earfhly sfrife and pain, And weaves a fairer iusfice in her reign. Irene Gsovski ROMANCE When Casanova meefs his HenrieHe Thai' modern lady grabs a cigareffe, And smiling sweefly of his earnesl gaze, She coyly whispers, Have you gof a blaze? lnanely grinning al' his lady love, He reaches for a mafch wifhin his glove. She burdens him wifh bundles, purse and books, And grabs her compacl' 'lo adiusf her looks. His hearf is pounding wifh a mighfy roar, As on fhey wander +o fhe candy sfore.

Charles Munoz OUTDOOR CONCERT The lighfs are dim, on boundless wings of melody A nofe leaps fhrough fhe silenced air, The sofl' cool fones of midday vanish- Far wesf, 'rhe sun sinks, and gold sfreaks linger'fhere Oh, fo be carried formless fhrough fhe floafing breeze Like fhis sweef music of fhe hidden haunfs- To dwell forever, silenced, unseen- To know nofhing of earfh or her faunfs. Buf on fhe waves of cool, celesfial sound, To live efernify, losf fo everyfhing Of feel, or fouch, or color- Alive in fhroafs or hearls fhaf sing. Formless, like fhe unseen flighf of birds, Or fhe sofl' wind moving fhrough leafy frees, Reborn forever in- warm hearfs and fhroafs, And flowing on, like sweefesf melodies. Pauline Newman SPRING I943 Awake, and hear 'I'he summer's firsf refrain Thaf fhrobs in Na+ure's hearf. Behold fhe flighi' Of sun besprinkled wings: fhe ripening lane Of pefals laughing in fhe golden lighf. And hear fhe dreamy founfain serenade The vale. Look well along fhe leaf crowned bough Thai' calmly suns ifs drooping hair, besprayed By flighfy April's ever fearful brow. Wifh whal' precision Nal'ure's friumph dawned, Recall 'rhe whifened shroud on fields sfripped bare Of seed, fhe branches cringing al' fhe faunf Of winfer whisfling fhrough fhe burmal air. Away wifh sorrow on a flicker's wing As fhrough fhis field of winfer sfeals fhe spring! Pauline Newman THE WAGES OF SIN ARE DETENTIONS Though fhe sun may be burning ouf fhere in fhe disfance, All fhe chemical changes inside merely bore me. Though machines may be running wifh swiff-moving pisfons All fhe wonders fhal' make fhem no longer can awe me. l am weary and blue, There is much l don'f like, There's anofher fhing foo, The bell is on sfrike. Alfhough Shakespeare has wriffen such s+ar-climbing drama, And irregular verbs are mosf worfhy of menfion, There is nofhing fhaf inferesfs me, science or grammar, For here l am serving a wicked defenfion.
