AND THEN… CHOP WOOD, CARRY WATER…
June 26th, 2007…Every man
And woman deserves one true moment of greatness
And this was his, this Dutch interior, entered
And possessed, so tranquil and yet so busy
With details: the couple’s shed clothes scattered
On the backs of armchairs, the dog chasing a shoe,
The wide open window, the late afternoon light.
From Dutch Interior by David Lehman.
