air blue mountain
And there in the blue air I saw for the first time, far off, the great snowy tops of the Rocky Mountains. I had to get to Denver at once.
girl sleep ice-cream
I rather like the idea of having all my hours to myself: eating a Fudge Sundae, watching a movie, sleeping on my couch, singing in the bathroom, studying the woods, kidding around with a girl, playing cards lazily - all kinds of stuff that American brands 'shiftless.'
long easy ends
So long and take it easy, because if you start taking things seriously, it is the end of you.
eye soul lovely
...notice how he will come to manhood with his own particular soul bespeaking itself through the windows which are his eyes, and such lovely eyes surely do prophesy and indicate the loveliest of souls.
country home tin-cans
I'd rather hop freights around the country and cook my food out of tin cans over wood fires, than be rich and have a home or work.
tired heart mean
Way far back in the beginning of the world was the whirlwind warning that we could all be blown away like chips and cry- Men with tired eyes realize it now, and wait to deform and decay- with maybe they have the power of love yet in their hearts just the same, I just don't know what that word means anymore- All I want is an ice cream cone
beautiful girl sweet
Her little shoulders drove me mad; I hugged her and hugged her. And she loved it. 'I love love,' she said, closing her eyes. I promised her beautiful love. I gloated over her. Our stories were told; we subsided into silence and sweet anticipatory thoughts. It was as simple as that. You could have all your Peaches and Bettys and Marylous and Ritas and Camilles and Inezes in this world; this was my girl and my kind of girlsoul, and I told her that.
white ties clouds
Who can leap the world's ties and sit with me among white clouds?
love-you care way
I have fallen in love with you, God. Take care of us all, one way or the other.
water walking-on-water walking
Walking on water wasn't built in a day.
cat realizing
Cats yawn because they realize that there's nothing to do.
may tomorrow dies
We are nothing. - Tomorrow we may be die. We are nothing. - You and me.
night rainy myth
It was a rainy night. It was the myth of a rainy night.
world done timeless
I have all the time in the world from life to life to do what is to do, to do what is done, to do the timeless doing.
