william carlos williams - the bull lyrics

Loading...

it is in captivity —
ringed, haltered, chained
to a drag
the bull is godlike

unlike the cows
he lives alone, nozzles
the sweet grass gingerly
to pass the time away

he kneels, lies down
and stretching out
a foreleg l!cks himself
about the hoof

then stays
with half+closed eyes
olympian commentary on
the bright passage of days

— the round sun
smooths his lacquer
through
the glossy pinetrees

his substance hard
as ivory or glass —
through which the wind
yet plays —
milkless
he nods
the hair between his h+rns
and eyes matted
with hyacinthine curls
