Dream Song 82: Op. posth. no. 5
Maskt as honours, insult like behaving
missiles homes.
I bow, & grunt 'Thank you.
I'm glad you could come
so late.
' All loves are gratified.
I'm having
to screw a little thing I have to screw.
Good nature is over.
Herewith ill-wishes.
From a cozy grave
rainbow I scornful laughings.
Do not do,
Father, me down.
Let's shuck an obligation.
O I have
done.
Is the inner-coffin burning blue
or did Jehovah frown?
Jehovah.
Period.
Yahweh.
Period.
God.
It is marvellous that views so differay
(Father is a Jesuit)
can love so well each other.
We was had.
O visit in my last tomb me.
—Perché?
—Is a nice pit.
