louise bogan - baroque comment lyrics

from loud sound and still chance;
from mindless earth, wet with a dead million leaves;
from the forest, the empty desert, the tearing beasts
the kelp+disordered beaches;
coincident with the lie, anger, l+st, oppression, and death in many forms;

ornamental structures, continents apart, separated by seas;

fitted marble, swung bells; fruit in garlands as well as on the branch;
the flower at last in bronze, stretched backward, or curled within;
stone in various shapes: beyond the pyramid, the contrived arch and
b+ttress;
the named constellations;
crown and vesture; palm and laurel chosen as n0ble and enduring;
speech proud in sound; death considered sacrifice;
mask, weapon, urn; the ordered strings;
fountains, foreheads under weather+bleached hair;
the wreath, the oar, the tool
the prow;
the turned eyes and the opened mouth of love
