Head and Bottle
THE downs will lose the sun, white alyssumLose the bees' hum;But head and bottle tilted back in the cartWill never partTill I am cold as midnight and all my hoursAre beeless flowers.He neither sees, nor hears, nor smells, nor thinks,But only drinks,Quiet in the yard where tree trunks do not lieMore quietly.
