The pale bubbles	A
The lovely pale gold bubbles of the globe flowers	B
In a great swarm clotted and single	C
Went rolling in the dusk towards the river	D
To where the sunset hung its wan gold cloths	E
And you stood alone watching them go	F
And that mother love like a demon drew you from me	G
Towards England	H
	-
Along the road after nightfall	I
Along the glamorous birch tree avenue	J
Across the river levels	A
We went in silence and you staring to England	H
	-
So then there shone within the jungle darkness	K
Of the long lush under grass a glow worm's sudden	L
Green lantern of pure light a little intense fusing triumph	M
White and haloed with fire mist down in the tangled darkness	K
	-
Then you put your hand in mine again kissed me and we struggled to be together	D
And the little electric flashes went with us in the grass	N
Tiny lighthouses little souls of lanterns courage burst into an explosion of green light	O
Everywhere down in the grass where darkness was ravelled in darkness	K
	-
Still the kiss was a touch of bitterness on my mouth	P
Like salt burning in	Q
And my hand withered in your hand	R
For you were straining with a wild heart back back again	S
Back to those children you had left behind to all the ons of the past	T
And I was here in the under dusk of the Isar	D
	-
At home we leaned in the bedroom window	F
Of the old Bavarian Gasthaus	K
And the frogs in the pool beyond thrilled with exuberance	K
Like a boiling pot the pond crackled with happiness	K
Like a rattle a child spins round for joy the night rattled	U
With the extravagance of the frogs	K
And you leaned your cheek on mine	V
And I suffered it wanting to sympathise	K
	-
At last as you stood your white gown falling from your breasts	K
You looked into my eyes and said But this is joy	W
I acquiesced again	S
But the shadow of lying was in your eyes	K
The mother in you fierce as a murderess glaring to England	H
Yearning towards England towards your young children	L
Insisting upon your motherhood devastating	X
	-
Still the joy was there also you spoke truly	G
The joy was not to be driven off so easily	G
Stronger than fear or destructive mother love it stood flickering	X
The frogs helped also whirring away	Y
Yet how I have learned to know that look in your eyes	K
Of horrid sorrow	F
How I know that glitter of salt dry sterile sharp corrosive salt	Z
Not tears but white sharp brine	V
Making hideous your eyes	K
	-
I have seen it felt it in my mouth my throat my chest my belly	G
Burning of powerful salt burning eating through my defenceless nakedness	K
I have been thrust into white sharp crystals	K
Writhing twisting superpenetrated	Z
	-
Ah Lot's Wife Lot's Wife	A2
The pillar of salt the whirling horrible column of salt like a waterspout	Z
That has enveloped me	G
Snow of salt white burning eating salt	Z
In which I have writhed	Z
	-
Lot's Wife Not Wife but Mother	D
I have learned to curse your motherhood	Z
You pillar of salt accursed	Z
I have cursed motherhood because of you	J
Accursed base motherhood	Z
	-
I long for the time to come when the curse against you will have gone out of my heart	Z
But it has not gone yet	Z
Nevertheless once the frogs the globe flowers of Bavaria the glow worms	K
Gave me sweet lymph against the salt burns	K
There is a kindness in the very rain	B2
	-
Therefore even in the hour of my deepest pas sionate malediction	B2
I try to remember it is also well between us	K
That you are with me in the end	Z
That you never look quite back nine tenths ah more	D
You look round over your shoulder	D
But never quite back	C2
	-
Nevertheless the curse against you is still in my heart	Z
Like a deep deep burn	B2
The curse against all mothers	K
All mothers who fortify themselves in motherhood devastating the vision	B2
They are accursed and the curse is not taken off	D2
It burns within me like a deep old burn	B2
And oh I wish it was better	D
