In encompassing silence I hear it.
I hear it, continually from your eyes
So much more from the gleaming
Of a most modest tone of choice
...

can't move that much
can't feel my hands
can't tell anybody, my semblance to nobody,
for the vents were seen penultimately,
...

fold it there (my dear,)
a hundredfold
if you may
(for someday we may be,
...

Overwhelming waves greedily engulf till my throat
As I swim convulsively on a river overflowing with
Chunks of wood; shreds of petals deaf with neglect
As they flow in this indefinite coffer - - (derelict) !
...

there is
(In her eyes)
this faint
(Shade of light)
...

'You could have seen him, ma
You could have seen him
Lift his little arms, asking -
For a clasp that we do, adore
...

how I long for thee
how I tasted the sea
how I lasted in days
i forgot to regress-
...

such a suave scamp
was i-i realized
my lobes adhere
to a sluggish verve
...

You are the fourteenth
And I would not hate you for that
You are but a two-edged- -knife
Useful to others but abhorring to my sight!
...

I would witness as I often do- -
A Dew of haste on someone's brow
While red roses droop abreast his elbow...
send for the bars- - of black and brown—
...

such a suave scamp
was i-i realized
my lobes adhere
to a sluggish verve
...

The House of Atreus is stained with blood,
Not even Cassandra could conceal it from her mouth,
Like your forefathers you bear the wrath of the gods,
Indeed the curse continued even in your hands.
...

Weep not my dear,
Weep not- and bear-
Bear your maple tears
We're here!
...

Could it be?
Time is an arrow- -
Cutting through my marrow
Splitting up all sorrow'
...

over those long’n’winding broken lines
we trailed for our freedom.
the freedom- we rarely touch
in the murals of this glass-house of ours.
...

Not so was i,
consumed
by agitation
to correspond
...
