From love's first fever to her plague from the soft second	A
And to the hollow minute of the womb	B
From the unfolding to the scissored caul	C
The time for breast and the green apron age	D
When no mouth stirred about the hanging famine	E
All world was one one windy nothing	F
My world was christened in a stream of milk	G
And earth and sky were as one airy hill	H
The sun and mood shed one white light	I
	-
From the first print of the unshodden foot the lifting	F
Hand the breaking of the hair	J
From the first scent of the heart the warning ghost	K
And to the first dumb wonder at the flesh	L
The sun was red the moon was grey	M
The earth and sky were as two mountains meeting	F
	-
The body prospered teeth in the marrowed gums	N
The growing bones the rumour of the manseed	K
Within the hallowed gland blood blessed the heart	K
And the four winds that had long blown as one	E
Shone in my ears the light of sound	K
Called in my eyes the sound of light	K
And yellow was the multiplying sand	K
Each golden grain spat life into its fellow	O
Green was the singing house	P
	-
The plum my mother picked matured slowly	Q
The boy she dropped from darkness at her side	K
Into the sided lap of light grew strong	R
Was muscled matted wise to the crying thigh	S
And to the voice that like a voice of hunger	T
Itched in the noise of wind and sun	E
	-
And from the first declension of the flesh	L
I learnt man's tongue to twist the shapes of thoughts	U
Into the stony idiom of the brain	V
To shade and knit anew the patch of words	W
Left by the dead who in their moonless acre	T
Need no word's warmth	X
The root of tongues ends in a spentout cancer	T
That but a name where maggots have their X	Y
	-
I learnt the verbs of will and had my secret	K
The code of night tapped on my tongue	Z
What had been one was many sounding minded	K
	-
One wound one mind spewed out the matter	T
One breast gave suck the fever's issue	A2
From the divorcing sky I learnt the double	B2
The two framed globe that spun into a score	C2
A million minds gave suck to such a bud	K
As forks my eye	S
Youth did condense the tears of spring	F
Dissolved in summer and the hundred seasons	D2
One sun one manna warmed and fed	K
