from A Tape For The Turn Of The Year - A.R. Ammons


you-who are you? how do I feel about you? do I hate it that I love to be tied to you by love? untied wd I be free or lost?

but for your own sake:who are you? can I help? is there any thing I can do: are things working out all right for you? what are those black areas? are they parts of you that can't fall into place, come into light? are they longings & fears only dreams whisper?

I love you the best I know how: encounter me with belief:

are you getting yours? getting and giving yours, mine & ours, are we resolving most of the areas, are we touching on elation enough? do I love you mostly, or the thought of us together?

are you hoping that giving will make up for not getting? that wd be the course of saints: get, too: get it from me: I have it and having if for you, I get mine:

who are you, deeper? have I sounded you? was that bottom I struck? but oh up in the heart & around your breasts and to speak of the deep in your eyes, have I come into your measure? are you getting yours? have you been had? you've had me: I float every cell comes to this: you are beautiful: you are just beautiful: beautiful: thank you:
