The Work...

 

Edward Hopper


The work isn't in us- 
a living presence is us - 
if it is just a path, 
knowledge, study - 
no matter how much we want to value it. 
No part of myself can be held apart from God. 
I see so much 
how there are certain parts of myself 
that keep closing off and wanting to remain separate. 
I can observe those mechanics 
yet I still am unwilling to open myself. 
I feel how much my ordinary self 
wants something for itself.
