I was suddenly
required to be
like my soul:
the growth of
experience can
motion itself
the single
engaging
principle
our aloneness
who we are
that it is landscape
is it conceivable
& so be responsible
with what
each of us is
his or her job
and enable
that simplest
one
the widest places
where man began
do you begin
a common weed
of blue secretes
the study of this
precise answers
transformed by
dooryard plants
something
we could not have had
the fact
of scholarship
my point is otherwise
by
already
no further
red ochre
as they lived
turning to
abstractions
the pattern on the cow
I have planned
a fable
anything
one specific
wise men
I remember
they sat down
always
the most beautiful
since
the internal environment
of ourselves
we think
the hard
in
you might think
I had gone soft
instead
you are
ungraspable
the natural
so complex
but
in this
engaging
I ask you:
for a moment think
these muscles & legs
measured
who I am
if you like
his careful
personal garden
that confusion
not at all
and every
that each
prevented
the same
the climate
of our being
of those
like what
from your
leave us
the soul
any
proper
working
decisively
to lay before
