Some stood and stood and stood. They were taken for dummies they were taken for fools they were taken for being taken in. Some walked and walked and walked. They walked the earth they walked the waters they walked the air. Why do you stand? they were asked, and why do you walk? Because of the children, they said, and because of the heart, and because of the bread Because the cause is the heart's beat and the children born and the risen bread.
