The New Adam Quotes

“I am the Planet eremite, the giant repulsor
of the light
That falls like icy rain at night, from frigid stars
and moons a-cold.
Ye hath not seen a world like this - the blank
and oceanless abyss,
The nameless pit and precipice, the mountain
very bleak and old.
Yet ah - my silence murmureth! Oh, Inner Orbs,
ye have not heard
That stillness where there is no death, because
no life hath ever stirred!
'But here God's very name is dead!' wept Heaven's
mighty Myriarch.
Then trembling turned away and fled, for Some-
thing gibbered in the dark!”
― Stanley G. Weinbaum, The New Adam
