Kavka
Kavka: "You asked what it is like to be sand. Every
foot prints you, every wind heaps or scatters you.
your face wears the expression of the last wave that
passed you. Whether you become a palace or glass
depends on the hands holding you, not your desire.
You are and ever will be flying, shifting,
impermanent powder."
--Gil Pettigrew
Note: "Kavka" is Czech for jackdaw or crow
