I have glimmers and flashes
of what the masters have
brief windows of grace
foundations glimpsed
my thoughts are full
of the desire to act
but I cannot
for if I cannot hold
their vision now
how could I amid acting

I want it solid and sure
I want to cut to the heart
so I must act from the heart

and the heart,
the heart is not yet full.
