Top 5 Michael Alexander Quotes
#3. But to elude death
is not easy: attempt it who will,

of the sons of men, the soul-bearers
dwelling on earth, ordained them by fate:
laid fast in that bed, the body shall sleep
when the feast is done.
Michael Alexander

the broken tower
have a story to tell -
from the touchstones of ruins
and ancient texts
we make a pilgrimage.
from The Ruins
Michael Alexander
#5. High over head they hoisted and fixed
a gold signum; gave him to the flood,
let the seas take him, with sour hearts
and mourning mood. Men under heaven's shifting skies, though skilled in counsel,
cannot say surely who unshipped that cargo.
Michael Alexander
