pencil u.c. Page 1; I am not willing, (the crossed out) tell them;/once & for all, I am not willing/Their will against mine./one against t'other/that's a fair balance./Gods? I am no god/& yet I think myself as good as they./Eternal? Almighty? –/What can you do?/Can you give me the wide expanse of heaven & earth/to clench in my fist?/Can you divide me from myself?/Can you expand me till I have/reached the dimension of a world?; c.r. Expand me
