Description
His heart beat faster and faster as Daisy’s white face came up to his own. He knew that when
he kissed this girl, and forever wed his unutterable visions to her perishable breath, his mind
would never romp again like the mind of God. So he waited, listening for a moment longer to the
tuning fork that had been struck upon a star. Then he kissed her. At his lips’ touch she blossomed
for him like a flower and the incarnation was complete.
Through all he said, even through his appalling sentimentality, I was reminded of something—
an elusive rhythm, a fragment of lost words, that I had heard somewhere a long time ago. For
a moment a phrase tried to take shape in my mouth and my lips parted like a dumb man’s, as
though there was more struggling upon them than a wisp of startled air. But they made no sound
and what I had almost remembered was uncommunicable forever.
