She celebrates herself,
every atom belongs,
belongs to belonging,
her house, her room, her own,
she breathes in, the fragrance
intoxicates her soul,
embraces her with arms,
the atmosphere invites
to go to the bank,
clear and sweet is her soul,
undisguised and naked,
plump upright, braced, she beams
electrical, the song
rising to meet the shine,
supple boughs, trees delight,
lean and loafe and invite,
observing summer grass,
a spear at ease ripples,
echoes, whispers the wind,
the wood by the blood bank
is full of crowded shelves,
boughs wag and play, the shade
is odorless, no taste,
her mouth breathes the fragrance,
rocks sniff perfumes of hay,
dry, green leaves, dark and mad,
words loosed, belched by the sea,
assume, always assume,
inspiration beating,
respiration passing,
taste the distillation,
respiration beating,
inspiration passing,
eddies forever smoke,
lungs colored, certain, sure,
do not talk of the end,
spectres look through her eyes,
feed on second hand books,
the dead lack mystery,
haughty as a stout horse,
she sees the unseen proved,
she receives proof in turn,
exactly, distinction,
identity, a breed
of a sound beginning,
ripples, echoes, whispers,
elaborate dimness,
opposite to all sides,
she dances, laughs and sings,
the shore filters her voice,
she vexes age with age,
echoes, whispers, ripples,
her equanimity
screams, gazing down the road,
leaves in silent baskets,
as God is her cipher,
as good, her bedfellow,
familiar to admire,
and urge an inch ahead,
advance to no avail.
