November, 1934, THE FANTASY FAN     47

The guttering stars are wild as candle-flames
That near the socket.

Thus the land shall be,
And Death shall wait, throned in Medusa's eyes,
Till, in the irremeable webs of night,
The sun is snared, and the corroded moon
A dust upon the gulfs, and all the stars
Rotted and fallen like rivets from the sky,
Letting the darkness down upon all things.

MALANOTH

(To Clark Ashton Smith)

by R. O. P.

Where is the ancient hidden sphere
Where Malanoth is king?
What silhouetted towers rear
And on the heavens cling?

Above the wall that shows no gate
The mighty columns loom;
Mysterious wonder incarnate
Where slumbers ancient doom.

Beyond the myriad whirling moons
That circle through the skies--
A place described in evil runes,
The awesome kingdom lies.

And Malanoth, is striped face
And obscure and pondering
Thinks always in that silent place
Of some old, secret thing.
