1
And then when then I die
2
I feel I shall say
3
I have not understood
4
I have not understood any of this
5
My eyes are still coaldark
6
I have not understood
7
Around and in my eyes the tiny flecks
8
Of swirling crippled confused lights
9
And to my heart I will whisper
10
Softly quietly
11
"There is no death there is no death"
12
(And goodbye to you all)
13
Under the gorgon grinned arches
14
Of London's great vaults
15
I have not understood
16
Under the sunpuckered roofs
17
Of Kathmandu
18
I have not understood
19
Along the soulstoned streets
20
Of Lower
21
And of Higher Germanie
22
I have not understood
23
Leipzig: blackeyed pain and loss: she
24
I have not understood
25
In Clare near I
26
the empty lakes are open in the distance
27
And too close is the famineretchingroad
28
All these are ghosts
29
There I have not understood
30
(In the Heart of the Wood
31
Oh there I have understood)
32
I rested at the temple of Great Black Time -- Her
33
And did not understand
34
Though animalbled fleshmarbled rivers ran in Her honour
35
His buckled body in blood
36
Returns to the prebirth poise
37
Spreadeagled like starfish --
38
There in His eyes:
39
Incomprehension mute pain disbelief what
40
Blood there meant sorrow trickles there
41
This I could not understand
42
I bend the pages of yet another book
43
And in its lines Great Black Lines
44
I have not understood
45
Please gramercy pray for me
46
And oh goodbye sweetestheart
47
The wind roars in the nearness
48
And there in my heart
49
And all the clouds are spiralling towards us
50
Descent indeed to the centre of it all
51
Skipping lightly and lying truly
52
This we shall understand
53
I hope...
54
We bent humped trees
55
The great ones -- there
56
On the lapped shore
57
Dai Ichi
58
There also I do not know
59
This is all unknowable
60
And as the dust covers
61
My empty eyes
62
You shall read in these foolish gapes
63
Oh that I have not understood
64
(But if you look for the stag and cross conjoined
65
there on my arm look there
66
There I have understood very well.)
67
Now you are all fading
68
All fading
69
As my age creeps on
70
As This Age stumbles on
71
Fires in the earth
72
Fires in the sky
73
Fires in our hearts
74
Fires everywhere
75
The black eyes
76
Already blacken
77
And this I have not understood
78
Not peace
79
But a sword
80
This and He
81
Unfortunately
82
I have understood
83
Under the bowered greenwood tree
84
When first I lay
85
Bright starre with Thee
86
Under the velvet branches dear
87
When sun and moon both came so near
88
Under the starlit open dome
89
Under the starsharp pointed lights
90
Under the starloved greeny earth
91
When first I wanted to hold You
92
And all the world halfdead and halflive
93
Spat into my mouth
94
Bluesea bitterwater
95
And I am almost dead
96
And I have not understood
97
Under the rain and teeth of gods
98
Under the pain and sleeping liddy eyes
99
Under the brokkèd wetful heaven
100
If you are there
101
If you are there
102
If you are there
103
Then I am singing with my eyes
104
If you are there
