Ezra Pound - The Bath-Tub 

As a bathtub lined with white porcelain, 
When the hot water gives out or goes tepid, 
So is the slow cooling of our chivalrous passion, 
O my much praised but-not-altogether-satisfactory lady.

One thing about reading Pound... He always gets right to the point. No fluffy beating around the bush, no trying to entangle the reader in words that sound intriguing with very little weight. This man is strong.
