2. Chop Wood

community, early work, life, poetry, work

May 24, 1995
I am a rose unfolding
into the day.  A butterfly
flits her tongue before fluttering
away.  With whom does responsibility lie?
The cathedral rises to greet the sky.
A glazier packs his tools away.  

(from My Book of Changes, 1994-1995)
