SCULPTOR

Image superposed

   On stone

       Thoughts convulse--------------

 

Cut rough stone

   Know the grain

      Matrix configuration-------------

 

Markout roughly

   Minds image-------------

 

Slowly chip off

   Unwanted surface

      Holding back

         Intact, grain required------------

 

Rough image transforms

   On rough stone----------------

 

Holding breath

   Small chisel hammered

      To remove

         Grain by grain

            To fill life

                Of immortality

                    To stone---------------

 

Lo image

   Stands out in reality

       Before the rays of eye

          The mortal hands

              Created

                 Immortal piece-------------
