My softly touched voice doesthrill

          this(un)reality;of
               circlesgently growing, gentlyclimbing
               sodiscreetly, slowly finding chance to meet,we
               tumbleone across another, cross nighneighbor

As a stone skipped across the water, as the
reverberatingripples
                            ofa sighing
                              wistful

     of lightsthought seen, he alone commands; yet
noman cantrace
     the dreadful, primalmacrame of man

I've yet to feel the fullwarmglow
     Of life distilled andstabilized;
          Oh,the languid sea of time-
               daysdefy all man's blind eyes, perhapsalone
               hewades their tide; the sandy foam stoutlydenies
               thebeach below yet man can feel the land'ssupport:

As the beggar void of sight, manstumbles
     and depends uponthe
                             kindness ofthe
