'If my head hurt a hair's footA
Pack back the downed bone If the unpricked ball of my breathB
Bump on a spout let the bubbles jump outC
Sooner drop with the worm of the ropes round my throatD
Than bully ill love in the clouted sceneE
-
'All game phrases fit your ring of a cockfightD
I'll comb the snared woods with a glove on a lampF
Peck sprint dance on fountains and duck timeG
Before I rush in a crouch the ghost with a hammer airH
Strike light and bloody a loud roomI
-
'If my bunched monkey coming is cruelJ
Rage me back to the making house My hand unravelJ
When you sew the deep door The bed is a cross placeK
Bend if my journey ache direction like an arc or makeL
A limp and riderless shape to leap nine thinning months '-
-
'No Not for Christ's dazzling bedD
Or a nacreous sleep among soft particles and charmsM
My dear would I change my tears or your iron headD
Thrust my daughter or son to escape there is none none noneN
Nor when all ponderous heaven's host of waters breaksO
-
'Now to awake husked of gestures and my joy like a caveP
To the anguish and carrion to the infant forever unfreeH
O my lost love bounced from a good homeQ
The grain that hurries this way from the rim of the graveP
Has a voice and a house and there and here you must couch and cryH
-
'Rest beyond choice in the dust appointed grainR
At the breast stored with seas No returnS
Through the waves of the fat streets nor the skeleton's thin waysT
The grave and my calm body are shut to your coming as stoneU
And the endless beginning of prodigies suffers open '-
