but to be in the lake
"I still don't know how to work out a poem"
A poem needs understanding through the senses
The point of diving in a lake
is not immediately to swim to the shore but to be in the lake
to luxuriate in the sensation of water
you do not work the lake out
It is an experience beyond thought
Poetry soothes and emboldens the soul to accept mystery
"I love mystery"
I found your fairy princess on the wall in my room
"And you can make her out"
She wears a butterfly frock
