Softened Stone
Sweeping curves
And cylinders
I am not conscious
How calming
Is the round
Until I work
With the photographs
And cylinders
I am not conscious
How calming
Is the round
Until I work
With the photographs
In a complex
Of rectangle and square
Though rich with gardens
Water flowing through fountains
This space of rounded stone
Softened only by circular curves
Is the place of peace for me
Implacable
It is the hard
Which asks me
To be soft
Which asks me
To be soft
The unyielding
Asks me
To yield
So I become the cloud
Pass over the peaks
Flow through the valley
I align with the supple forces
Which overcome the implacable
Water and Stone
I watch the clouds
Dominate the mountains
I see the rain
Cleave the stone
Dominate the mountains
I see the rain
Cleave the stone
I understand
How the soft
Is stronger
Than the hard
Stolid or Fluid

All such admirable
Qualities of stone
