A Quote by Sam Hamill on belonging

No road shows the way,
Kotaro said in a poem, the road
follows behind.

When Su Tung-p'o was
an old man, his house burned down.
He laughed, "Now I can see the stars!"

This world is only process, a single
monumental motion
without beginning, without end.

We like to think this world is ours,
but we belong to it,
to a world just being born.
