The Bricks You Lay

Is your house built out of certainty are the walls made thin or stout Is your mind filled up with questions do you live in fear or doubt Is your spirit free or servile is your will unchained or slave Is your heart the trowel you build with and love — the bricks you lay (Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2017)
