The Bridge would cease to be
To Our far, vacillating Feet
A first Necessity.

All life -- to know each other --
Whom we can never learn --
And bye and bye -- a Change --
Called Heaven --

Just finding out -- what puzzled us --
Without the lexicon!

Like any Parasite --
If that is full of Meat
The Mind is fat.
