Sometimes a small thought
Is not such a worm,
Is not a caterpillar
Munching the leaves of the brain.
Sometimes a small thought
Is an infant angel curled,
Neither worm nor alien,
Neither rodent nor human,
The offspring of a notion
That words like angel and ghost
Are constellations,
Stories tying together
Real acquaintances
At very great distances.
