                 I
 
     AND so I cross into another world
     shyly and in homage1 linger for an invitation
     from this unknown that I would trespass2 on.
 
     I am very glad, and all alone in the world,
     all alone, and very glad, in a new world
     where I am disembarked at last.
 
     I could cry with joy, because I am in the new world,
         just ventured in.
     I could cry with joy, and quite freely, there is
         nobody to know.
 
     And whosoever the unknown people of this un-
         known world may be
     they will never understand my weeping for joy
         to be adventuring among them
     because it will still be a gesture of the old world I
         am making
     which they will not understand, because it is
         quite, quite foreign to them.
 
                              II
 
     I WAS so weary of the world
     I was so sick of it
     everything was tainted3 with myself,
     skies, trees, flowers, birds, water,
     people, houses, streets, vehicles, machines,
     nations, armies, war, peace-talking,
     work, recreation, governing, anarchy4,
     it was all tainted with myself, I knew it all to start
        with
     because it was all myself.
 
     When I gathered flowers, I knew it was myself
        plucking my own flowering.
