when I hunger for a purpose as perfect and sure
as a single daily egg.
If I could only stand in the sun,
scratch the gravel and blink and wait
for the elements within me to assemble,
asking only grain I would
surrender myself to the miracle
I live the world where we can
nothing of the miracles in twelves,
only of the hand that feeds
and, daily, robs the nest.
