You you at night and you in the sun you, farther than the pylons that walk, charged with light, across the fields of wheat and vanish through the hills you, invincible to change, and vulnerable to every wind that breathes upon these singing wires you, and the clouds above the wires, and the sky above the hills Yes, you everywhere you, driving, laughing, arranging the day, efficient at the desk and brisk across the phone telegrams and you, cocktails and you you and the image in the glass, and the knock at the door, then the second image, and the embrace, the kiss you, yes you beneath the sculptured slab and raised mound, lost with the echo of Handel among cathedral beams You, you and all of the things that the world ignores, all of the things that the world has forgotten, all that the world will never know you and the glow-worm, you and the rainbow, you and the desert mirage and the Northern Lights you, the footstep, you, the drumbeat, you, the firedance, you, the whirlwind, you, the trigger, the bullet, the heart, and the shield. |
