Titaness
(on Michael Osbaldeston's colossal sculpture of a woman)

When the hills rose from the sea,
And the stars danced in the dawn,
When time sprang from eternity,
The titaness was born.

Her eyes became the verb to see;
Her ear was the angel's horn;
Her nostrils taught the flowers to be,
Her tongue the green sweet corn.

What after gods would hold in scorn,
Grown from materiality,
Still calls us back to that first dawn
When there was only she.
