The loving day the mounting sun the friend I am happy with | B |
The arm of my friend hanging idly over my shoulder | A |
The hill side whiten'd with blossoms of the mountain ash | C |
The same late in autumn the hues of red yellow drab purple and | D |
light and dark green | E |
The rich coverlid of the grass animals and birds the private | F |
untrimm'd bank the primitive apples the pebble stones | G |
Beautiful dripping fragments the negligent list of one after | A |
another as I happen to call them to me or think of them | H |
The real poems what we call poems being merely pictures | I |
The poems of the privacy of the night and of men like me | J |
This poem drooping shy and unseen that I always carry and that all | K |
men carry | J |
Know once for all avow'd on purpose wherever are men like me are | L |
our lusty lurking masculine poems | M |
Love thoughts love juice love odor love yielding love climbers | I |
and the climbing sap | N |
Arms and hands of love lips of love phallic thumb of love breasts | O |
of love bellies press'd and glued together with love | P |
Earth of chaste love life that is only life after love | P |
The body of my love the body of the woman I love the body of the | Q |
man the body of the earth | R |
Soft forenoon airs that blow from the south west | S |
The hairy wild bee that murmurs and hankers up and down that gripes | T |
the full grown lady flower curves upon her with amorous firm | U |
legs takes his will of her and holds himself tremulous and | D |
tight till he is satisfied | V |
The wet of woods through the early hours | I |
Two sleepers at night lying close together as they sleep one with an | W |
arm slanting down across and below the waist of the other | A |
The smell of apples aromas from crush'd sage plant mint birch | X |
bark | Y |
The boy's longings the glow and pressure as he confides to me what | F |
he was dreaming | Z |
The dead leaf whirling its spiral whirl and falling still and | D |
content to the ground | A2 |
The no form'd stings that sights people objects sting me with | B |
The hubb'd sting of myself stinging me as much as it ever can any | J |
one | B2 |
The sensitive orbic underlapp'd brothers that only privileged | C2 |
feelers may be intimate where they are | L |
The curious roamer the hand roaming all over the body the bashful | D2 |
withdrawing of flesh where the fingers soothingly pause and | D |
edge themselves | E2 |
The limpid liquid within the young man | W |
The vexed corrosion so pensive and so painful | D2 |
The torment the irritable tide that will not be at rest | S |
The like of the same I feel the like of the same in others | I |
The young man that flushes and flushes and the young woman that | F2 |
flushes and flushes | G2 |
The young man that wakes deep at night the hot hand seeking to | H2 |
repress what would master him | I2 |
The mystic amorous night the strange half welcome pangs visions | J2 |
sweats | K2 |
The pulse pounding through palms and trembling encircling fingers | I |
the young man all color'd red ashamed angry | J |
The souse upon me of my lover the sea as I lie willing and naked | L2 |
The merriment of the twin babes that crawl over the grass in the sun | B2 |
the mother never turning her vigilant eyes from them | H |
The walnut trunk the walnut husks and the ripening or ripen'd long | M2 |
round walnuts | N2 |
The continence of vegetables birds animals | O2 |
The consequent meanness of me should I skulk or find myself indecent | P2 |
while birds and animals never once skulk or find themselves | E2 |
indecent | P2 |
The great chastity of paternity to match the great chastity of | P |
maternity | J |
The oath of procreation I have sworn my Adamic and fresh daughters | I |
The greed that eats me day and night with hungry gnaw till I | Q2 |
saturate what shall produce boys to fill my place when I am | R2 |
through | H2 |
The wholesome relief repose content | S2 |
And this bunch pluck'd at random from myself | T2 |
It has done its work I tossed it carelessly to fall where it may | U2 |
