Luxury
Word-skeins,
ropes of language, flaxen cordage,
what luxury to coil its supple circumference
in spools, rolls, bobbins, reels,
weaving and looping,knotting, untangling,
slipping a blade to its fibers --
instead of history this entitlement,
this private wonder,
this poem.
- from Seven Notebooks, by Campbell McGrath
