One of his poems discusses a "beautiful mild woman" and states that the title character's fall "needs much laboring." Another poem by this man states that the title characters "were all on show" and ends with the image of "the foul rag and bone shop of the heart." In addition to "Adam's Curse" and "The Circus Animals' Desertion", he asked "how can we tell the dancer from the dance?" in the last line of his poem "Among School Children," and wrote of a people to whom "no likely end" could bring loss, "or leave them happier than before." In that same poem, the title character believes "that he shall meet his fate / somewhere among the clouds above," while another poem compares an old man with a tattered robe upon a stick and opens by describing the title place as "no country for old men." For 10 points, name this author of "An Irish Airman Foresees His Death", and "Sailing to Byzantium."
