Just finished mowing...
there seems to be too much in my head
need to give it expression
backed up
reservoir
cloud tear
dam burst
emotional
ready to bear all
am become a wanderer
Wanderer wrecca wretch
separated from the loaf lord
but what if my companions were ladybirds, pigeons, moths, soil and worm
what if there were another way?
" This is the sense but not the order of the words
as he sang them in his sleep; for verses, though
never so well composed, cannot be literally translated
out of one language into another without loss of their
beauty and loftiness." *
