John Berryman - Dream Song 24: Oh servant Henry lectured tillJohn Berryman - Dream Song 24: Oh servant Henry lectured till
Work rating: Low


Oh servant Henry lectured till the crows commenced and then he bulbed his voice & lectured on some more. This happened again & again, like war,— the Indian p.a.`s, such as they were, a weapon on his side, for the birds. Vexations held a field-monsoon. He was Introduced, and then he was Summed-up. He was put questions on race bigotry; he put no questions on race bigotry constantly. The mad sun rose though on the ghats  & the saddhu in maha mudra, the great River, and Henry was happy & beside him with excitement. Beside himself, his possibilities; salaaming hours of half-blind morning while the rainy lepers salaamed back, smiles & a passion of their & his eyes flew in feelings not ever accorded solely to oneself.
