Fragmentary verse reflecting on dream reach and inner struggle in calm June days. The speaker contrasts visionary schemes with hate in the Real, seeking wings to rise toward unattained peaks and laurels not truly earned.

The item cites a Chicago policeman arrest story, Wanamaker money talk, and a Treasury note on per capita circulation at 55.43 dollars as of June 1, with scattered references to Germany, meetings, and social notes.
