Shut it up / Sing silence / To destiny / Give / half-a-crown / To a magician / Half a glance / To window-eclipse / And count the glumes / Of your day's bargaining / Lying / In the lining / Of your pocket / While compromising / Between the perpendicular and horizontal / Some other tramp / Leans against / The night-nursery of trams / Puffs of black night / Quiver the neck / Of the Clown of Fortune / Dribble out of his trouser-ends / In dust-to-dust / Till / cock-kingdom-come-crow / You can hear the heart-beating / Accoupling / of the masculine and feminine / Universal principles / Mating / And the martyrdom of morning / Caged with the love of houseflies / The avidity of youth / And incommensuration.
