Poems of Shape and Motion

I was wondering if I could shape this passion Just as I wanted in solid fire. I was wondering if the strange combustion of my days The tension of the world inside of me And the strength of my heart were enough. I was wondering if I could stand as tall, While the tide of the sea rose and fell. If the sky would recede as I went, Or the earth would emerge as I came To the door of the morning, locked against the sun. I was wondering if I could make myself Nothing but fire, pure and incorruptible. The wound of the wind on my face Would be healed by the work of my life Or the growth of the pain in my sleep Would be stopped in the strife of my days. I am wondering if the agony of years Could be traced to the seed of an hour. If the roots that spread out in the swamp Ran too deep for the issuing flower. I was wondering if I could find myself All that I am in all that I could be. If all the population of stars Would be less than the things I could utter And the challenge of space in my soul Be filled by the shape I become. I walk slowly in the wind, Watching myself in things I did not make; In jumping shadows and in limping cripples Dust on earth and houses tight with sickness Deep constant pain, the dream without sleep. I walk slowly in the wind, Hearing myself in the loneliness of a child In woman's grief, which is not understood In coughing dogs when midnight
