In the mustardseed sun, / By full tilt river and switchback sea / Where the cormorants scud, / In his house on stilts high among beaks

And palavers of birds / This sandgrain day in the bent bay's grave / He celebrates and spurns / His driftwood thirty-fifth wind turned age; / Herons spire and spear.
