POSTCARD FROM CUTTYHUNK for B.W.

I wonder if this roomy earth of ours

might be one organ —large or small

it would be presumptuous to guess—

in some great body striding through

the energies and silences of space.

One part of the metabolism of mind,

secreting colors and cloud shapes and human speech.
