  • The way it is
  • There's a thread you follow : it goes among
  • Things that change : but it doesn't change
  • People wonder about what you are pursuing
  • You have to explain about the thread
  • But it is hard for others to see
  • While you hold it you can't get lost
  • Tragedies happen : people get hurt or die : and you suffer and get old
  • Nothing you do can stop time's unfolding
  • You don't ever let go of the thread
  • William Stafford (1914-93).
