Love’s alchemy
I dined with her and found
what heat the alchemist
took home in a bottle:
a letter from July,
wind and fever.

Horticultured
the garden gives me nothing
I am glad
after love or great disorder
in an unknown nest
I could be quiet
Rose-colored glasses
I saw the ships set off
at the beginning of love
but I know not
whether I shall see
a dolphin.
By any other name
This rose at her door
called me to know her,
the day very pleasant,
though the way bad
and I a newborn,
my head aching.
Sacrifice
I dine on love
like a well I bury
my teeth in.
Courtly love
A fine lip the bottle had—
my lady
and her good night.
February romance
Dine me, wine me,
know me and Valentine me,
please me, give me
a spoonful of honey
for my cold.
Cheating on Death
I go to the wine-house
to know my fear
of losing time
and make an ordinary lay
a mad love.
Materialist
My stuff all alone
and calling me,
I went home.
We love one another.
We cannot part.
Travel Song
This morning I will go
to Constantinople
where the woman I love
sells child’s coats.
Last night
I sent for my chest
and put on my black silk for joy.
Muse
This morning I was taken
with a comely woman: not handsome
but a woman of the best language
that ever I heard any
in my life.
I took leave to go to the office
and could not return.
New Stockings
Love is like hose here
on Little Queen Street
to a vain and simple lieutenant
with a mind full of lace.
