The Realists Poem by William Butler Yeats
The Realists
Rating: ★3.9
HOPE that you may understand!
What can books of men that wive
In a dragon-guarded land,
paintings of the dolphin-drawn
Sea-nymphs in their pearly wagons
Do, but awake a hope to live
That had gone
With the dragons?

Reads like an attempt to revive the beauty of mythology.
