Turns ghost to ghost; each mothered child
Sits in their double shade.
A process blows the moon into the sun,
Pulls down the shabby curtains of the skin;
And the heart gives up its dead.”

as to know it as it is known
by galaxy and cedar cone,
as if birth had never found it
and death could never end it:”
