Words—having
long since turned
to thoughts
some of
which have—much more recently
burned
into certain
definitive and repeatable
smoldering patterns
of action—our hero
has at last
achieved
the kind of victory
that no fervent child
in his right little
fiery impetuous mind—
could ever dare
conceive of;
for
so complete-
ly and entirely
unconditional! as to be
boring,
and so
colorless—
and drab
when sheer
doubt-
less-
ness—itself
becomes his uniform.
