From: Simplane Simple Plane Simulate Plain Simple on
As I watched the Plower Plowing
Pensive and Faltering
Out of the Cradle Endlessly Rocking
A Word Out of the Sea.
Out of the rocked cradle.
Out of the boy’s mother’s womb, and from the nipples of her breasts.
When the lilac-scent was in the air
If we two but keep together.
O trembling throat!
Murmur! murmur on!
O past! O joy!
Loved—but no more with me.

The dusky demon aroused,

Lisp’d to me constantly,
and laving me softly all over
But fuse the song of two together.
It was sung to me,
O I wish,
as you and the waves have just,
sea-ripples.
Alone, held by the eternal Self of me, threatens to get the better of
me, and stifle me.
At once I find the least thing belongs to me, or I see or touch, I
know not.

or shall write.
Striking me with insults till I fall helpless upon the sand.
Because I was assuming so much.
You oceans both! You tangible land! Nature!
Be not too rough with me—I submit—I close with you.
These little shreds shall, indeed, stand for all.
For I fear I shall become crazed, if I cannot emulate it, and utter
myself as well as it.
Sea-raff! Crook-tongued waves,
O, I will yet sing, some day, what you have said to me.

On the Beach at Night, Alone
Clef Poem.
This Night I am happy, but this night is not yet
As I walk the beach where the old mother sways to and fro, singing her
savage and husky song.
What can the future bring me more than I have?
Peace love joy and sharing all unconditionally
Do you suppose I wish to enjoy life in other spheres?
Perhaps you do, perhaps you do not but enjoy it will you not know it
how know it you will not enjoy it?
I say distinctly I comprehend a better sphere than this earth,
I comprehend a better life than the life of my body.
I do not know what follows the death of my body,
But I know well whatever it is, it is best for me,
It must be or I must not be
And I wish well whatever is really Me shall live just as much and even
more as before.
I am not easy but I shall have good housing to myself,
This is my first—how can I like the rest any better?
When all infinite stems from a soul then all in a first stems to the
infinite.
In my heart there is infinitely better than any exists
Disadvantaged you see the heart grows cold in a body
And burns like flames in a center so pure
To keep warm and alive this soul in a body
Where I grew up—the studs and rafters are grown parts of me.
I am like wood and organic matter, a human Pinnochio
I cry a Godly reprieve not knowing what it is I want to be, but
trusting in creation to be heard and trusting and kind
I am knowing what it is I am not to be, this yearning
Yearning to be a real joy and gift free from these surroundings
This form I am sad to have a body and to be breakable and unnatural
Not like the rest of these I am like you you'll see
Sure they mock and shame and think I am simple but the simplest truth
escapes their mocking and ages of wisdom vast as mine
They think to know and understand what they think to know and
understand it is all the same to me to move past this for it bores me
and more importantly
Sometimes I feel like a twig or moss grown on a log twirling through
space
And imagine my body this shell of vapid life grown into a body like a
mollusk
And I am appalled at the cruelty but my heart will not let me hate or
anger
Wondering why I came in this gross form fragile and freakish
A spirit accidentally grew into organic matter what a sight they must
say
And the spirits free and unattached look on with pity and disgust
But it is my heart they know not they miss
For I have seen even better than their's in all realms
For what I have seen better not than it exists
I am uneasy but I am to be beloved by young and old, and to love them
the same,

I suppose the pink nipples of the breasts of women with whom I shall
sleep will taste the same to my lips, “will touch the side of my face
the same.”
But this is the nipple of a breast of my mother, always near and
always divine to me, her true child and son, whatever comes.
I suppose I am to be eligible to visit the stars, in my time,
I have seen it in my dreams
Free in dark sky, reassured I embark free of a body across the sky
And the black speckles with stars and gives way to hughes of orange
As I join hands not with a body but in soul and I trust
And the two of us truly fly but only by trust and faith this belief
manifest this reality
A pure rarity it must be
I suppose I shall have myriads of new experiences—and the experience
of this earth will prove only one out of myriads;
But I believe my body and my Soul already indicate these experiences,
And I believe I shall find in the stars more majestic and beautiful
than I have already found on the earth,
And I believe I have this night a clew through the universes,
And I believe I have this night thought a thought of the clef of
eternity.
