'Hold this clumsy oversize head of mine, (puzzled brow like yours!)
and a final caress to feel whole
as I lie safely in you. I'll let you snuff like me and pick fleas out of me
til I be barrel-chested, again--
do anything to crack those dark eyes of yours, and tough gangly arms
that eased me once into the vetch'
