I am the jealous store-house of candle-ends
That lit your adolescent learning
---------
Behind God's eyes
There might be
Other lights
Loy (1882-1966) was born in London to wealthy parents. While her father did not believe in formal education for women, Loy convinced him to let her study at Künstlerinnenverein, a women's arts college in Munich, and the Académie Colarossi, in Paris.
Out of the severing
Of hill from hill
The interim
Of star from star
The nascent
Static
Of night
She became close with Gertrude Stein while living in Paris, and then moved to Florence in 1906. Loy began publishing 'free verse' in 1914, dabbled in Futurism, and then in 1916 moved to New York to join the avant-garde arts and literary scene, alongside Dadaists like Marcel Duchamp, Francis Picabia, Tristan Tzara, and publishers Jane Heap & Margaret Anderson (et al.).
The prig of passion---
To your professorial paucity
Proto-plasm was mad
Evolving us---
Loy would go on to be a leading poet of the post-1913 'new verse' movement - culminating in her 1923 book, Lunar Baedeker - and her poetic innovations were praised by numerous contemporaries, including William Carlos Williams, Alfred Kreymborg, Walter Arensberg, and T.S.

Of the laboratory
of vocabulary
she crushed
the tonnage
of consciousness
congealed to phrases
to extract
a radium of the word
