Breathless mouths may summon;

I call it death-in-life and life-in-death.”

Mean nothing. His distinction between Me and Us
Is a matter of taste; his seasons are Dry and Wet;

taught him to arm the waiting wave,
a giant where its mouth hung open.
He rode on the lip that buoyed him there
and buckled him under.”
