This is a disparate collection of mild, rather vague poems written under the spell of Keats, though not under his tutelage, except the injunction: disinterestedness.

Proust said that when he read a novel, he was keenly aware of the Truths strewn throughout the prose. There are no Truths in these poems. The poems have rhythm or meter, and many rhyme.
