The Cycle

Modified "Found" Poem from Cannery Row -- 2009

Nerve racking.
It's the little things that make the difference,
The full impact.
Struggling old horrors,
Constant attention.
A kind of edge
For God's sake;
Margin of safety.
Everything was all right...
Such a wonder of God.
Someone Who loved and understood
Small difficulties And
The infinity of possibility...
Fate took a hell of a lot of trouble.
