My heart goes out
to every brick layer
for their mortaring
and to the possibility
that foul-mouthed brick laying
is a small tribute to God’s
construction of the universe
knowing how difficult it is
for flawed human lives
to build anything that
reaches towards heaven
I cobbled together
a small wall once
that surprisingly still stands
though it will remain a
trade secret - all the things
that came out of my mouth
