    greets its rifled shadow in the doorway. They walk us to the workshop. I am eminent‚ the blacksmith of the block: these active hours fly like sparks in the furnace‚ I hammer metals with zest letting the sweating muscles forge a forgetfulness of worlds more magnetic. The heart‚ being at rest‚ life peaceable‚ your words filter softly through my fibres. Taken care of‚ in no way am I unhappy‚ being changed to neutral. You must decide today‚ tomorrow‚ bear responsibility‚ take gaps in pavement
