hate blows a bubble of despair into
hugeness world system universe & band
—fear buries a tomorrow under woe
and up comes yesterday most green & young

pleasure and pain are merely surfaces
(one itself showing, itself hiding one)
life’s only & true value neither is
love makes the little thickness of the coin

comes here a man would have from madam death
neverless now and without winters spring.
