The Brain – is wider than the Sky-
For – put them side by side –
The one the other will contain
With ease – and You – beside
The Brain is deeper than the sea –
For – hold them – Blue to Blue –
The one the other will absorb –
As Sponges – Buckets – do
The Brain is just the weight of God –
For Heft them – Pound for Pound –
And they will differ – if they do –
