i 40-Phæthon’s
leash more suns
for caravan
with your body’s-span
more zodiac’s bears
than eye unbars
show-crabs and goats
than telescopes
yet must decline
in rounded time
of 40 suns
I, — Phæthon’s!
and suffer this preferment
because you pierce dreams
because you overhang
night’s snarl with body’s-fang
see where my blood
streams
in the firmament
Experiment, No. 3 (May 1929), 39.
