Lady,since your footstep
is more frail than everything
which lives,than everything which breathes
in the earth and in the sea
because your body is more new,
a dream(skilfully who mimics,entirely who pictures
yourself a skilfully and entirely moving dream
with fingers,a dream with lifted little breasts
and with feet)touches
me through the day scarcely,timidly;
whereas,beside me through the long night and upon
me, always i feel the crisply and deeply moving
you which is so glad to be alive—
the you with hot big inward stealing
thighs,perfectly who steal me;or as the wise
sea steals entirely and skilfully the ignorant earth.
