LIVING IN TIME To writte down all I contain at this moment I would pour the desert throughan hour-glass, The sea through a water-clock, Grain by grain and drop by drop Let n the trackless, measureless, mutable seas and sands.

Forearth’s days and nights are breaking over me The tides and sands are running through me, And I have only two hands and a heart to hold the desert and the sea. What can I contain of it? It escapes and eludes me The tides wash me away The desert shift under my feet KATHLEEN RAINE
