“The Surprises of the Superhuman” by Wallace Stevens 🇺🇸 (2 Oct 18792 Aug 1955)
The palais de justice of chambermaids
Tops the horizon with its colonnades.
If it were lost in Űbermenschlichkeit,
Perhaps our wretched state would soon come right.
For somehow the brave dicta of kings
Make more awry our faulty human things.
