grey whiteness of fog against invisible

top of ridge, quails calling from field

in foreground, sound of wave in channel

where extended space, field

is chosen arbitrarily

from point to a line, since

from part, it follows

grey white of fog against top of ridge,

pelican flapping to the left toward it

grey whiteness of fog against invisible

top of ridge, towhee calling from field

in foreground, sound of wave in channel

such a thing as space

grey white of fog against top of ridge,

cormorant flapping across toward point

first grey light in sky above blackness

of ridge, waning white moon by branches

in foreground, wave sounding in channel

sitting up, a ripened plant,

small head on a stalk

grey white of fog against top of ridge,

shadowed green pine on tip of sandspit

ridge, sparrow calling from pine branch

only in so far as is, right

side of last equation

of surface as well as lines,

given, as function of

grey white fog against invisible ridge,

circular green pine on tip of sandspit

light coming into fog against invisible

ridge, song sparrow calling from branch

or standing in front of sun,

brightness of the sky

outside moving toward place,

between us, the eye's

silver edge of sun rising above ridge,

white circle of moon in pale blue sky
