In More Than One Sense

A word, like fix,
Will fix the world,
Peg out the waves,
Hold them in frame,

Make things work out,
Heal, make them real.
And not just fix—
All of us will.

We’re what you do.
You don’t hold fire,
Paint caves, build walls,
Box plants, dam lakes,

But for us words.
But for us words,
Your world’s all dreams
And dreams your world.
