A poem (in progress):
I am made of clay
Of clay and bone,
Breath and thread
Woven, whispered, wedged
First formed by the First
and Last
I am made of ash
Of sinew and soot
Dust and dirt
Sewn, sifted, swept
My name in a grain
Of sand
I am made of earth
Of rocks and moss
Sinter and cloth
Grown, gathered, gowned
In glorious
Flowers
I am made of clay
Of ash and earth
To these I return
Yet always to remain
is that
I am made.
