“Teach me, like you, to drink creation whole/ And casting out myself, become a soul.”

“What is the opposite of two?A lonely me, a lonely you.”

“Step off assuredly into the blank of your own mind. Something will come to you. Although at first You nod through nothing like a fogbound prow, Gravel will breed in the margins of your gaze”

“A thrush, because I'd been wrong,Burst rightly into songIn a world not vague,not lonely,Not governed by me only.”

“Now winter downs the dying of the year,And night is all a settlement of snow;From the soft street the rooms of houses showA gathered light, a shapen atmosphere,Like frozen-over lakes whose ice is thinAnd still allows some stirring down within.”

“It is always a matter, my darling,Of life or death, as I had forgotten. I wishWhat I wished you before, but harder.”

“All that we do is touched with ocean, and yet we remain on the shore of what we know”
