^{it is so long since my heart has been with yours

shut by our mingling arms through

a darkness where new lights begin and

increase,

since your mind has walked into

my kiss as a stranger

into the streets and colours of a town --

that i have perhaps forgotten

how, always(from

these hurrying crudities

of blood and flesh)Love

coins his most gradual gesture,

and whittles life to eternity

-- after which our separating selves become museums

filled with skillfully stuffed memories

(ee cummings)}
