This–this morning, this house, this terrible thing,
this lovely moment, this body, this verse, this this–
too–too hard to forget, too big for its britches,
too bad, too sad for words, to joyous to contain–
shall–shall we gather, shall I compare, shall not perish,
shall from time to time, shall receive, shall sing–
pass– pass the butter, pass the ball, pass the test
pass over, pass by, pass through, pass on, pass away.
