him: being observed his: glistening limbs
slippery with sweat - spasms - salt will seem
whitish by the tree: the axilla flowering,
will stiffen, crystallise, then, when the skin's
shrunk by the wind, beside him parchment
will hang from the scourged limbs - the flesh conelike


-

so: reeden the: leaf-spines spreading out from marshy soil: sedge
the sawgrass it: sways
the conical corn-ears - tips they cut that cuts
- - whispers
whispering throughout - the corneal layer the fingerberries' buds -
- carved: in the wind
