VIRGIN YOUTH

     Now and again
     All my body springs alive,
     And the life that is polarised in my eyes,
     That quivers between my eyes and mouth,
     Flies like a wild thing across my body,
     Leaving my eyes half-empty, and clamorous,
     Filling my still breasts with a flush and a flame,
     Gathering the soft ripples below my breasts
     Into urgent, passionate waves,
     And my soft, slumbering belly
     Quivering awake with one impulse of desire,
     Gathers itself fiercely together;
     And my docile, fluent arms
     Knotting themselves with wild strength
     To clasp what they have never clasped.
     Then I tremble, and go trembling
     Under the wild, strange tyranny of my body,
     Till it has spent itself,
     And the relentless nodality of my eyes reasserts itself,
     Till the bursten flood of life ebbs back to my eyes,
     Back from my beautiful, lonely body
     Tired and unsatisfied.
