Facts
Lewis Carroll
1832 to 1898
Were I to take an iron gun,
And fire it off towards the sun;
I grant 'twould reach its mark at last,
But not till many years had passed.
But should that bullet change its force,
And to the planets take its course,
'Twould never reach the nearest star,
Because it is so very far.
Lewis Carroll's Facts
I am busy working to bring Lewis Carroll's "Facts" to life through some unique musical arrangements and will have a full analysis of the poem here for you later.
In the meantime, I invite you to explore the poem's themes, structure, and meaning. You can also check out the gallery for other musical arrangements or learn more about Lewis Carroll's life and contributions to literature.
Check back soon to experience how "Facts" transforms when verse meets melody—a unique journey that makes poetry accessible, engaging, and profoundly moving in new ways.
