  1. A CRAZED GIRL
  2.  
  3. THAT crazed girl improvising her music.
  4. Her poetry, dancing upon the shore,
  5.  
  6. Her soul in division from itself
  7. Climbing, falling She knew not where,
  8. Hiding amid the cargo of a steamship,
  9. Her knee-cap broken, that girl I declare
  10. A beautiful lofty thing, or a thing
  11. Heroically lost, heroically found.
  12.  
  13. No matter what disaster occurred
  14. She stood in desperate music wound,
  15. Wound, wound, and she made in her triumph
  16. Where the bales and the baskets lay
  17. No common intelligible sound
  18. But sang, "O sea-starved, hungry sea.'
  19.
