"Che sola a me par donna" (Petrarch)
_____________
The little i do out of ardent love for
utterly little
if i love! and see it
merge with whatnot, is still for you--
the little i've got
And the primacy of eye and joy over eye,
amounting to the same old
cold of rigid hearts,
is still full value for Christ, is it not?
But what can my beloved of frilly anklet, eye
hunched down by the well, do?
Up or down, pure or not
it will still be just for me the utterly little
i do love,
if i do
