Elegy of the earth
I hid me some of the stones for they were mercurial
and fastidious- not withstanding shadow or some
thus I felt, thus I didn't hersistate to do
thus I smothered, thus I bellied or meme or more or yes
accept a gift from me
thus the bed, thus did the limbs weakening and
pretending and wishing and wishing and wishing
through?.
I hid me the moon and tis sort of claims and tis sort of
repeatations and fumblings and tumblings and
resournances and flatterings and grosteque pictures
and nightmares.
I hid me the moon
lest trees drape them or otherwise sometimes water?.
