...See how the Yellow River's water move out of heaven.
Entering the ocean,never to return.
See how lovely locks in bright mirrors in high chambers,
Though silken-black at morning, have changed by night to snow.
... Oh, let a man of spirit venture where he pleases
And never tip his golden cup empty toward the moon!
Since heaven gave the talent, let it be employed!

now, grown small, become a little growing
longing joy. Something teaches him
to rise, to stand and move out through
the opening the light has made.

furrows of his name, hearing among the others
one woman's cry. She is crying and laughing,
her voice a stream of silver he seems to see:

and freeze it in blubber and place it out
on the fairway of the bears.
And when it has vanished
I move out on the bear tracks,

How piteous-false the poor decree
That trade no more than trade must be!

...had said goodbye I'm leaving
he was 22
his mother and father were hurrying
at that very moment
from upstate to help him move out of Brooklyn
they had heard about the girl
