Harry Crosby Great Poems
- 1. Hill Of The Foreskins
what was the moment of coition like?
come Zariba let down your gates
turn turtle all you captives of the flesh
... - 2. Invocation To The Mad Queen

or golden net to snare the butterfly
of soul
... - 4. Sun-testament

First, I hereby direct and elect that my estate shall be administered and my will construed and regulated and the validity and effect of the testamentary dispositions herein contained determined by the laws of the Sky.

Raymonde
If it were not for you
I would not be glad today
And I would continue to dream
