Dymer

Dymer is a narrative poem by C. S. Lewis. He worked on this, his most important poem, as early as 1916—when still only 17 years old—and completed it in 1925. Dymer was his second published work; it was published by J. M. Dent in 1926, under the pseudonym Clive Hamilton (the writer's actual first name followed by his mother's maiden name). Lewis thought of himself as writing in the tradition of Homer, Spenser, Milton, Wordsworth, and others. George Sayer's analysis suggests that the book is about the temptation of fantasies, "the fantasies of love, lust, and power." more »

From their lips they dribble it
The water we reserve to spit
Our prisons hold what conscience can't
While heavens heave and thirsty pant
The water pouring from our skies
Will bring salvation and demise

The storm will fall on you
The storm will fall on me
If mercy falls on everything
I cannot pray it cease

Still from my lips your sins won't purge
The drought or rain don't quench the urge
To see the lighting lick the gates
And watch the wicked wash away
But the fire spreading in my mind
Would never stop by my design

The storm will fall on you
The storm will fall on me
If justice falls on everything
I cannot pray it cease

The sun will rise again
On my enemy and my friend
And I've prayed for some to choke
But who am I to throw these stones?

So storm upon us all
