                                                    the Heart is a clock
around which clusters
or which draws to itself
all which is the same
as itself in anything
or anyone else the
power of itself lies
all about itself in
a mathematic of feeling
which we call love
but who
love itself is the container
of all feelings otherwise than love
as well
as the Heart equally
holds all else there is anywhere
in Creation, when it is
full

Charles Olson 1968
