  Out of woman come the man, spend the

  rest of his life getting back where he can

  As a bow, so a dove, as below, so a-bove

  From the black hole,

  come the tadpole

  With the dark soul in coal she burn, she

  burn; as I drove into the sun,

  Didn't dare look where I had begun

  Lost among echoes of things not there,

  Watching the sound forming shapes in the air

  From the white star,

  come the bright scar

  Our amoeba, my little liebe schon_____
