This will destroy


This will destroy
That
Which broods
Stone to stone
A dead labor
For the innocent

Who will be struck
Unfinished
Then raised
Beyond
Their words
To cope

Bring
The singing hammer
Home
A pleasant working

Speak the building marrow
Constant in its coursing

A shield
Atop a door
Is blank of ciphers
Leading

That is the way
To walk
A chisel
