Hammer

Sparks
Flying sparks
And splattering fire
As time after time
The hammer, each new hammer
Beats and shapes us into better
Beings
If
We
Survive


Ken Goree


Aren’t we better beings if we survive the pounding of our missteps, and beatings undeserved.  Each time some misfortune strikes and we still answer, “Great,” “Fine,” “Outstanding,” or “Peachy,” when someone says, “How are you?” we continue to polish ourselves into a grander work of art.
