Heel & Toe To The End

Gagarin says, in ecstasy,
he could have gone on forever
he floated at and sang
and when he emerged from that one hundred eight minutes
off the surface of the earth
he was smiling. Then he returned to take his place among the rest of us
from all that division and subtraction
a measure to and heel
heel and toe he felt as if he had been dancing
William Carlos Williams

Love Song

I lie here thinking of you:---
the stain of love
is upon the world!
Yellow, yellow, yellowit
eats into the leaves,
smears with saffron the
horned branched the lean
heavily
against a smooth purple sky!
There is no light only
a honey-thick stainthat drips from leaf to leafand
limb to limb
spoiling the colors
of the whole world-
you far off there under
the wine-red selvage of the west!
William Carlos Williams
