boiling, over the west past all control
rolling and swamps the heartbeat and repeats
sea beyond sea after unbearable suns;
think: poems fixed this landscape: Blake, Donne, Keats.”

“The real price of everything, what everything really costs to the man who wants to acquire it, is the toil and trouble of acquiring it.”
