from Statueless Architecture

I passed through nature

into the next. Children

running in unsupervised shadows.

Last century's fountains learning

not to lie. Risk

to identify with only

one element since one

will die but in

the summer air around

each thought, something is

built and avoided.

– Brenda Hillman (2005)
