How can I see him when he is not here? 
Invisible, transparent, I confess 
‘The eye becomes the servant of the ear, 
And he a rippling voice—no more, no less. 
‘These eyes, that have seen choughs on alpine peaks 
And red macaws against a jungle green, 
Cannot catch sight of one who loudly speaks 
And pulls these eyes to where he should have been! 
I think that I could fabricate this, sprite. 
I'd reach into the sky, twist off a bit 
Of pale blue dough, no larger than a mite, 
And then into a voice I’d fashion it!
