A sudden outpouring with no resolution!

I sat down and played this once, then for some reason started it again a couple of times \u2014 perhaps trying to find a resolution that wasn\u2019t there to be found. But I ended up using that first take after all.

It somehow reminds me of GMH:

Each mortal thing does one thing and the same:
\n\xa0\xa0Deals out that being indoors each one dwells;
\n\xa0\xa0Selves\u2014goes its self; myself it speaks and spells,
\nCrying What I do is me: for that I came.

(Here\u2019s the whole poem.)
