   I looked through a pane of glass and I saw the dead carrying the living. A ship. It was a month old when Moses was born and it is a month today. The moon. As round as an apple, as flat as a pan, the half of a woman and the whole of a man. A penny. I went up the road and I went down the road and I took the road on my back. A ladder. A hard working father, an easy going mother, and twelve sons. A clock.
