Of Mere Being

The palm at the end of the mind,
Beyond the last thought, rises
In the bronze decor, ...

The house was quiet and the world was calm. The reader became the book; and summer night

Was like the conscious being of the book. The house was quiet and the world was calm.

THE HOUSE WAS QUIET AND THE WORLD WAS CALM

...
Oh! Blessed rage for order, pale Ramon,
The maker’s rage to order words of the sea,
Words of the fragrant portals, dimly-starred,
And of ourselves and of our origins,
In ghostlier demarcations, keener sounds.

Even if there had been a crescent moon On every cloud-tip over the heavens, Drenching the evening with crystals’ light,

One would have wanted more—more—more— Some true interior to which to return, A home against one’s self, a darkness,

An ease in which to live a moment’s life, The moment of life’s love and fortune, Free from everything else, free above all from thought.

We live in an old chaos of the sun,
Or old dependency of day and night,
Or island solitude, unsponsored, free,
Of that wide water, inescapable.
