your exact errors make a music
that nobody hears.
your straying feet find the great dance,
walking alone.
and you live on a world where stumbling
always leads home.
year after year fits over your face -
when there was youth, your talent
was youth;
later, you find your way by touch
where moss redeems the stone;
and you discover where music begins
before it makes any sound,
far in the mountains where canyons go
still as the always-falling, ever-new flakes of snow.
