On Looking Up by Chance at the Constellations" and "Choose Something Like a Star."
One poem by this author claims that "It is true the longest drought will end in rain / The longest peace in China will end in strife" though "that calm seems perfectly safe to-night." That poem begins by noting "You'll wait a long, long time for anything much / To happen in heaven." Another of this author's poems implores "Say something to us we can learn!" "Talk Fahrenheit, talk Centigrade" because "to be ($) wholly taciturn / In your reserve is not allowed," though "We grant your loftiness the right / To some obscurity of cloud." That poem says that, "at times the mob is swayed / To carry praise or blame to far," we can do the title action "To stay our minds on and be staid." For ten points, name this author of (*) "On Looking Up by Chance at the Constellations" and "Choose Something Like a Star."
