Two headings lead to modest thoughts of space, water, and dirt and the claim that singing would change the speaker. The second address breaks off at You wud.

The unfinished last row should not borrow a completion from the neighboring handwritten poem. The source keeps a draft fragment rather than a fully resolved reciprocal statement.

A typed draft under the paired headings 'Native Sons / Sons of God' sets out 'Modest thoughts for space, water and dirt' and repeats 'If I sang a song to you / I would be different / I think that is true' before breaking off at 'You wud'.

The page joins the cosmic Native Sons material to the singing lyric of page 141 and stops mid-address; the overstruck final letter of wud is unresolved, so the fragment is left open rather than completed from the neighboring poem.
