Shared with dVerse Quadrille #242 – hunger
μακάριος (makarios) is the Greek word for blessed.
I would fill my hollow leg
with all the libraries’ best
To wave the wolves away
at my open doors
My fire burns through these leaves
in cultivation of curiosity
Grafting facts, pruning the fat (…)
Blessed are they which do hunger
until elegant sufficiency.
