Mind wind
Mind Wind is a metaphor in poems. In other words it is not reality
For example, 'mind' (noun, memory) has [ʌɪ]
'mind' (verb, to look after something/someone) has [ʌɪ]
'wind' (noun, a current of air) has [ɪ]
BUT ....
'wind' (verb, to form by twisting) has [ʌɪ],
I, like many people who learnt English, just learnt the pronunciation at the same time as the word. I think that's all you can do - English is notoriously unphonemic, that way. Good luck!

It is true, however, that although the greater part of metaphysics is merely the embodiment of humdrum errors, there remain a number of metaphysical passages which are the work of genuine mystical feeling; and they may more plausibly be held to have moral or aesthetic value. But. as far as we are concerned, the distinction between the kind of metaphysics that is produced by a philosopher who has been duped by grammar, and the kind that is produced by a mystic who is trying to express the inexpressible, is of no great importance : what is important to us is to realize that even the utterances of the metaphysician who is attempting to expound a vision are literally senseless; so that henceforth we may pursue our philosophical researches with as little regard for them as for the more inglorious kind of metaphysics which comes from a failure to understand the workings of our language ~ page 45
