In Praise of Work

The possibility is there That I might write With the poet’s innate inspiration What comrade time Has reason to portend Of our aims I might write Or even our dreams But our destinations! Even the Pope’s edict… Hist! I pledge my doubt. Of greater moment Is our faith In the plough. Hail plough! Hail abundance!
