Progress


Stones into weapons.
Weapons into tools.

Caves into houses.
Houses into homes.

Curiosity into wisdom.
Wisdom into love.

    Tears into diamonds,
    Sewn inside tartan pleats.

    Coal into cinders,
    Bucketfuls for the trash.

    Seven knocked sideways
    Off the brick address.

    It’s not the house that’s gone,
    But the childhood.
