What reading level is Oklahoma And Other Poems book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Your forms are skeletons, Whose bony hands with mortal fingers play, Where grinning skulls are heaping on the way, And airy specters meet the timid ones; Death drops his arrows from your sullen skies, Destruction dances in your noisome shades, And in the dreadful darkness of your glades The horrid shriekings rise. There in your cycles are Dark valleys where my weary feet must go, Though devils of disaster hurl and throw Their awful sorrows from the fortunes far; No hands of pleasure can... presume to part The clouded curtains of impending care, And hissing serpents of insane despair Pour poison in my heart. O, years that are to be, Among your solitudes I, dreaming, grope; My life's the shade of unaccomplished hope, My heart's a ghoul that feeds on agony! No strains of music call my tears away, No smiling star illumes the awful night; Ambition weeps; my soul draws without light My shameless feet astray! No soothing welcome floats Between your marble lips, nor sweetly rise The tender songs of gentle melodies From croaking caverns of your iron throats; But from your dirges of destructive pain, Wild clash of wretched sound is borne to me, Where death and failure, tears and misery, In robes or anguish reign.
