if trying too hard is to be
unfeeling and thankless
if it is hard where then
do you hide your kernels
where then devil do you
release your sheets
where then ornament,
where can I trust my eyes
where then lying
are you light, are you down,
are you dolmen, liquid
crown
where then
your power to charm
me your power to see me
I awake in affair I again
in a day I remote and de-
mote I flurry and fathom
I gust up in fathoms
as in a net
I bring you fathoms
