John Berryman - Dream Song 135: I heard said 'Cats that walk by their wild lone'

I heard said 'Cats that walk by their wild lone' br but Henry had need of friends. They disappeared br Shall I follow my dream? br Clothes disappeared in a backward sliding, zones br shot into view, pocked, exact & weird: br who is what he seem? br br I will tell you now a story about Speck: br after other cuts, he put the knife in her eye, br one of the eight: br he was troubled, missionary: and Whitman br of the tower murdered his wife & mother br before (mercy-killings) he set out. br br Not every shot went in. But most went in: br in just over an hour br with the tumor thudding in his brain br he killed 13, hit 33: br his empty father said he taught him to respect guns br (not persons).
