I heard from her and what she said
The big drum beat within my head
Be still my heart I cried aloud
But this sound pierced an air asleep
No bird or beast or Angel moved
Tha azure sky alone was proved
I heard from her and what she said
This rose in violet or Lily!
A hybrid plant on a bower fair
Thou single word between each line
I long to harvest that outcropped thing
O reverence for uncertainty!
Then stillness broke from a tolling Bell
That tolled for me the hollow bliss
And doubted firm my reverie
Mocking my lack of memory
And I admonished closed my hand
To find a quantity of sand
Particles of that silly quark
Too soft and fine to count again
Particles of that psyhic quark
That which floors the shore itself
Formed by a see in a time Divine
Between two mighty cliffs of stone
