THIS QUITCH
Is this the shape of things to come
the shape of satisfaction snaking
through multitudinous existence?
Images of sustenance shimmer
as jewels of snake's skin wisdom in the
plenty of the world heart pulsing twelve
These squares of hope to cover us!
How every stitch fights hunger's chill
and wakes our dreams of better
The fullness of the table found
in the fire of the heart's hearth
in the glowing of generous embers
Yes, what a story told! --
The magic we can make
When many hands are willing
