to sit on my shoulder, a white bird,
and peck at the black eyes
and the vibrating red muscle
of my mouth.”

The pale which held that lovely deer;
My joy, my grief, my hope, my love,
Did all within this circle move!”

dripping in its little white moments.”

How ev’ry star by proper name to call?”

Like an enormous yes. My Crescent City
