I am ill today but I am notA
too ill I am not ill at allB
It is a perfect day warmC
for winter cold for fallB
-
A fine day for seeing I seeD
ceramics during lunch hour byE
Mir and I see the sea by LegerF
light complicated MetzingersD
and a rude awakening by BraunerF
a little table by Picasso pinkG
-
I am tired today but I am notA
too tired I am not tired at allB
There is the Pollock white harmH
will not fall his perfect handI
-
and the many short voyages They'llJ
never fence the silver rangeK
Stars are out and there is seaD
enough beneath the glistening earthL
to bear me toward the futureF
which is not so dark I seeD
