"to see you: tensed, as if each leg were a gun / loaded with leaps, but not fired while your neck / holds your head still, listening: as when, / / while swimming in some isolated place, / a girl hears leaves rustle, and turns to look: / the forest pool reflected in her face."--from Rilke, The Gazelle.
