River of the hare-brained, of the feverish, of flayers,

Of the sun leaving its plough to sink to the level of lies.

River of one’s betters, river of the clear fog,

Of the lamp which freezes the fear around its shade.

River of regard for dreams, river that rusts iron,

Where the stars keep the shadow they hold back from the sea.

River of powers yielded, of cries entering its watery mouth,

Of the hurricane that gnaws the grape and announces the new wine.

River with an indestructible heart in this mad prison-world,

Keep us violent and friends to the bees on the horizon.
