Mostly conversational verse. No point in looking for ideas. The emphasis is on clarity of speech at the service of shaped emotion and distinct imagination.21If you think you have arrived,Right away ask: Where?You may indeed have survivedBut you may still be there.Consider the implications,How much depends upon the act,Perhaps on ego-inflations,In other words: Mere artefact. Or wrack you brains if you must,If you cannot do it with ease,If you lack the skill to adjustTo the shelling of a bowl of peas,To running to the shop and thenTo collapse, breathless, on a bench, Mindful of the time whenYou were a lusty wenchAnd not yet married and soreAs hell from all the conflictAnd who knows what else is in storeUnless the fates conspire to restrictThe influx of duty and careFor husband, society and childAnd you would be willing, anywhereTo reconsider, to rewild.If you think you've arrived, rethinkYourself, starting from scratch,When you took your first drinkAnd down came the hatch.*
