This It which we

   accommodate—

Such that

   only This

     may come of That:

   our deepest, wholest fond

Which can go no less

   than far, far beyond,

     toward happiness:

A blessed state—

   as if a kiss

     were some

   errant acrobat

     of bliss;

Tumbling wildly

   out of control,

In the heart and the mind

   and the soul.
