| Alfred Kreymborg, ed. Others for 1919. 1920. | | | | Viennese Waltz | | By Evelyn Scott |
| | | DRESDEN china shepherdesses | |
| Whirl in the silver sunshine: | |
| Columbine stars | |
| Float in gauze petticoats of light… | |
| |
| Little Columbine ghosts, wrinkled and old, | 5 |
| Smelling of jasmine and camphor; | |
| Prim arms folded over immaculate breasts… | |
| |
| The pirouetting tune dies… | |
| Stars and little faded faces, | |
| Waltzing, waltzing, | 10 |
| Shoot slowing downward | |
| On tinkling music, | |
| Dusty little flowers, | |
| Sinking into oblivion… | |
| |
| After the music, | 15 |
| Quiet, | |
| The glacial period renewed, | |
| Monsters on earth, | |
| A mad conflagration of worlds on ardent nights… | |
| |
| These too vanishing… | 20 |
| Silence unending. | | | | |
