Poem: December 2, 2022

Passion Project

So I will take my hammer,

my drill and saw, 

and in an open space, 

I will build some joy.


With plane and lathe

and hasp and file

I will do my best to shape

the great happiness.


With sand and paint

and a yellow stain

I will create the shining thing

that sings and sings.


And I will place it 

in a public square

and, smiling, greet the friends

who join me there.
