what is given

Courtesy of Brendan McManusa man must make his way

through the world.

he must learn how to use

what is given:

the cold spring water; the scorpion

under the stone; the shadows

on the wall that walk towards him

and through him – taking with them

their kin – leaving him 

empty   filled with light
