louis untermeyer - hands lyrics

Loading...

strange, how this smooth and supple joint can be
put to so many purposes. it checks
and rears the monsters of machinery
and shapes the idle gallantries of s+x

those hands that light the fuse and dig the trap
fingers that spin the earth or plunge through shame++
and yours, that lie so lightly in your lap
are only blood and dust++all are the same

what mastery directs them through the world
and gives these delicate bones so great a power? . .
you drop your head. you sleep. your hands are curlеd
loosely, like some half+opеned, perfumed flower

an hour ago they burned in mine and sent
armies with banners charging through my veins
now they are cool and white; they rest content
curved in a smile. the mystery remains
