I turned to face The Word
and as it yielded its wieldy wisdom
on golden-edged page
I shouted,
How dare you speak to me,
Flesh,
with such a tome.
If the world
speaks any message
so urgent
I will learn it
through cricket's crisp tune
and the herb's potent bloom.
I will breathe in
the moist sunbeams of morning
and know.
