Visit An Ancient-Looking Thought (Poem by Stephen Black, July 5, 2010)

The other night we had some friends from out of town over for dinner and our friend Stephen Black took up the challenge to create a found text poem there at my desk.  Here is Missouri Bend Paper Work's first guest found poem, by the wonderful artist/printmaker Stephen Black!


visit an ancient-looking thought. Below
forget What is the matter
You will remember       the window sill among
Inwardly, lights forgetting ancient places,
and always leading one day   I   have said,
then in an instant  If you will grow again.
