Vast and grey, the sky / is a simulacrum / to all but him whose days / are vast and grey, and -- / In the tall, dried grasses / a goat stirs / with nozzle searching the ground.

-my head is in the air / but who am I. ?

And amazed my heart leaps / at the thought of love / vast and grey / yearning silently over me.
