“The steel worker on the girder
learned not to look down, and does his work
And there are words we have learned
Not to look at,
Not to look for substance
Below them. But we are on the verge
Of vertigo.”
George Oppen (1965)

There is a commerce between inner and outer, between brightness and shadow,
between the world and those who think about the world.”

Busy above me ravens croak and flap;"

"These words it added: 'Wherefore tear'st me thus?
Is there no touch of mercy in thy breast?
Men once were we, that now are rooted here.' "
