God said, "I made a man
Out of clay—
But so bright he, he spun
Himself to brightest Day
...

...

It is what I never said,
What I'll always sing—
It's not found in days,
It's what always begins
...

In my desire to be Nude
I clothed myself in fire: —
Burned down my walls, my roof,
Burned all these down.
...

I will break God's seamless skull,
And I will break His kissless mouth,
O, I'll break out of His faultless shell
And fall me upon Eve's gold mouth.
...

It's a hurricane of spirit—
That's genius! Not God can tear
It from itself, though He is the rose
In this skull that's seer.
...

Leaned in my eyes and loved me.
Leaned in my throat and spoke.
Dared my grovelling bloodscape,
It to a dazzeling diamond made.
...

Come to a conference with me!
We will confer About,
Till you are in Doubt.
This is the first Circumstance.
...

Between God's eyelashes I look at you,
Contend with the Lord to love you,
In this house without death I break His skull
I ache, I ache to love you.
...

Nobody yet knows who I am,
Nor myself may;
Nor yet what I deal,
Nor yet where I lead.
...

,
...

When the world shall come to its end
On the world's last Love I'll stand.
O God will try to push me down but I
With all my force will push Him back.
...

If my sun set in the west
I could not bear it!
And if it rose in the east—
I must annul it!
...
