Someone will say what you are.
I do not think
you are a headstone
or a heavenstone. Maybe
you are a hearthstone.
Maybe you are one. I could
build a fire. Raise from
your hands. Maybe
this slippery and smooth path
of stones equals fire. Maybe
there are dank rugs
and difficulty. Maybe
ballast, and difficulty
in a hard week, a stony creek. We
can return.
