Heartbeat And Sails
Augie March

Scoop my brains and let my heart have action

In its thousand million lots

In the dumb city dawn I am senseless and drawn to the sun

As the blackbirds and the toppyknots


And in biting down on the great foam world

What is the looming thing?

Not money, not flesh, not happiness

But this, which makes me sing


O scoop my brains and let my heart have action

In its thousand million lots

And feel the subterranean movement a fraction

And deep under ocean, the celibate rocks


Has it borne me down? Has it run me through?

If I give it a name do I contract it too?

More likely this thing has been growing in me

Like I have grown in you


Scoop my brains and let my heart have action

In its thousand million lots

In the dumb city dawn we dispense with the forlorn beasts

That we were in the night, grown lean on love


A love which will pierce and callous and tumesce

O upon the birth oath the morbid bloom

Is a child's sense of impending doom

In a womb that is ambushed, in a womb that is ambushed


In biting down on the great foam world

What is the looming thing?


Not money, not flesh, not happiness

But this, which makes me sing

Not money, not flesh, not happiness

But this, which makes me sing
