Poem by Isaac Rosenberg

* * *

If you are fire and I am fire,
Who blows the flame apart
So that desire eludes desire
Around one central heart?

A single root and separate bough,
And what blind hands between
That make our longing's mutual glow
As if it had not been? 

1. The Nun
2. Wedded
3. The Troop Ship
4. Creation
5. Don Juans Song
